Claim question about tenageer friend backing into car

by Joe

My teenage son that has gull insurance on his car while out of town was parked at a friends house.

A friend back into his car and caused about 1700 in damage.

This friend was going to pay for damage directly and now has decided to file a claim with his insurance company. My son already has car in for repairs. Does my son need to notify my sons insurance company. thank you


Answer:

It depends… Is there any possibility that your son’s car was parked illegally or in any way be blame for the accident (which it would be difficult, but I am talking about an allegation).

If there is no way that this can happen, then you are probably safe. Remember that you have a duty to report claims, read more about there:
