Statistics Show How Accidents Influence Car Insurance Costs

Leave a comment


News Image

“Before making the decision to file a claim to their insurers, drivers should carefully analyze if it’s worth it. Drivers who are not at fault and suffered minor damages should avoid filling claims to prevent their premiums to increase substantially”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director


LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

Compare-autoinsurance.org has launched a new blog post that presents how car insurance premiums will change for a policyholder who files a claim after an accident.

For more info and free car insurance quotes, visit https://compare-autoinsurance.org/car-insurance-after-an-accident-how-are-premiums-affected/.

Before making a claim to the insurance provider, drivers should consider a few things before making this move. According to a recent study, drivers who make a single auto insurance claim saw their premiums increase on average by 44.1%. Also, the reported premium increases weren’t for individuals who have a history of unsafe driving. Even after a single claim, premium increases can be significant.

Drivers who want to file a claim after an accident should consider the following:

  • How much the premiums will rise. The increase drivers can expect to see on their insurance premiums after an at-fault accident varies by location, driving record, vehicle, and the insurance company. Drivers can expect anywhere from a 23% to 73% increase in premiums in year one after an at-fault accident.

  • Insurance premium increase by state. Some states report costlier increases than others. Drivers living in states such as North Carolina, Massachusetts, Texas, New Hampshire, and California can expect to see their rates increase after an accident from 57.3% to 63.1%. On the other hand, drivers from Kentucky, Montana, Oklahoma, Michigan, and Maryland will see their rates go up anywhere from 21.5% to 30.6%. Increases in the premium paid can last as long three to five years after an at-fault accident if the damages to the vehicle exceed over $2,000.

  • How to lower the premiums. Be prepared and purchase accident forgiveness. Not all companies offer this, but those that do will give the policyholders a one at-fault accident forgiveness with no increase in premium if they fit certain criteria. Other methods involve raising the deductible and improving the credit score. Furthermore, policyholders should avoid filing claims for small things after they have filed a claim on an at-fault accident.

  • Which claims affect the premiums the most. Bodily injury claims can cause the premiums to spike the most. A single bodily injury claim will result in an average premium increase of 48.6%.

  • What if the policyholder isn’t at fault. Whether or not the rates will increase after an accident in which the policyholders were not at fault is insurance provider specific. Some companies will not increase the premium for drivers involved in their first accidents, but if they suffer several accidents, even if they are not at fault, it could result in an increased premium.

Does Car Insurance Cover Damage Caused By Riots And Vandalism?

Leave a comment


News Image

“In case of vandalism, only comprehensive car insurance can help drivers receive proper reimbursements.”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.


Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB)

Compare-autoinsurance.org has launched a new blog post that explains which car insurance policy covers acts of vandalism.

For more info and free car insurance quotes, please visit https://compare-autoinsurance.org/does-your-current-car-insurance-policy-cover-vandalism/

Insurance coverage that covers acts of vandalism is not part of the liability insurance. Drivers that got their cars vandalized will have to support the costs of repairs by themselves if they are only having liability coverage. Drivers that have comprehensive coverage in their insurance plans will be protected against acts of vandalism.

Rioting can occur at unexpected times and the consequences can be devastating for car and business owners, It can be difficult to assign fault to any damage caused by a riot, especially since rioters tend to cover their faces. Owning the right coverage can help drivers recover from riot-related losses. Policyholders need to have coverage in place before the rioting occurs since some providers may not allow purchasing coverage when active riots are in the area. This is the case with the ongoing violent riots happening in more than 25 states all over the U.S. What drivers should know:


  •     Comprehensive coverage is the only policy that covers vandalism. This coverage will protect drivers against events that don’t involve driving. Evens like car theft, floods, fire, falling objects, and of course vandalism Drivers should think twice before purchasing this expensive policy. Every day, there are more than 700 acts of vandalism against vehicles from the US. Comprehensive coverage comes with a deductible that has to be paid before the insurance kicks in and pay for the costs to repair or to replace a vehicle.

  •     The costs of comprehensive coverage. Several factors can influence the costs of comprehensive insurance. Factors like the insurance company, the policyholder’s coverage, and his address. Besides paying for the comprehensive coverage, drivers will also have to pay for the rest of the components of their policies. On average the costs of comprehensive car insurance are about $1,000 per year.

  •     Comprehensive coverage will also reimburse the policyholder if the car’s windshield is cracked or shattered. Some companies offer glass coverage without a deductible.
