If you have a car that you are just storing, or if you’re planning to leave your car here in the U.S. while you leave the country, or if you just don’t drive the car and don’t want to pay for auto insurance, here are some tips to consider before doing so.
If you feel like you are victim of an insurance scam accident, first thing to do is call 911. Take pictures of the other passengers and make note of who is in the car at the time of the accident. Take pictures of the damage and who was driving and note exactly what happened, along with getting all license plate numbers involved.
Many drivers would not even consider looking into insurance coverage on an after-market audio system. There are a few things to consider, however. Is it covered by your auto insurance?
Uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage is used when you are hit by a driver that has insufficient coverage or no coverage at all. This optional coverage helps to compensate you for damages, up to your policy limit.
If your car was hit by someone and they do the legal/right thing by admitting it and paying for it, all is well. The “at fault” driver’s insurance will cover it under their property damage portion of their insurance for your car to be fixed. In the case that someone hits your beautiful new car while you are in the store and drives away, what do you do?
The responsibility of who pays what in Nevada is contingent on who’s at-fault in an auto accident. All drivers in Nevada have an obligation to drive their automobiles safely to reduce any risks of potential accidents. In Nevada, if you are the at-fault driver (the person that caused the accident), then you are responsible to “make whole” the individual or property you hit.
A car accident can happen in the blink of an eye and witnessing one can be scary. After an auto accident, all drivers involved are required to stay at the scene where information is exchanged for auto insurance purposes. But what should you do if you witness a car wreck?
Personal items such as a tablet, wallet, or any personal valuables are not generally covered in your auto insurance policy. Those items would be covered in your homeowners/renters policy. You would have a deductible to pay for first, and then you’d need to consider the consequences of a claim on your homeowners policy.
Windshield / glass coverage pays the amount of a covered glass loss, and as an added perk, it has a low deductible. Your insurer will cover the full costs of the repairs up to your policy limit, and as long as the costs of the damages don’t exceed your coverage limit, you’ll pay only your small deductible.
Rental reimbursement would reimburse you for either your daily rental charges or your policy limit, whichever is less. It can be used after any covered collision or comprehensive loss (assuming you carry collision and comprehensive coverage). K4 and K5 coverage can also help with post-accident “loss-of-use” costs.
