Did your insurance premium go up after an accident that was your fault?

How much would my insurance premium go up from an accident?

  • I have Arbella insurance My starting premium is 1105.00 I am 19 years old I got into an accident with a state highway department truck on 06/06/2011, today in the mail i received a surcharged notice, stating that i was in face, more then 50 percent at fault of the accident. i did not receive a citation at the scene of the accident, but late the week i received one in the mail, but was a warning, How much would my premium go up? My accident: I was traveling down a road and the other vehicle was parked on the side, on the other side of the street, right before a street (confusing right) There was no other cars in sight except the one on the side of the road, I turned on my blinker, then proceeded, mid-way through the turn, the vehicle left his parking spot and hit me. My damage was the right front quarter panel and his damage was his front of the truck, is this worth fighting for?

  • Answer:

    if he was parked and pulled out and hit you it is always worth fighting to keep off your insurance. your very young and your insurance is already high the increase for an accident with a city vehicle is alot. call your insurance and tell them you want to fight it right away and fight the ticket too.

In the US the surcharge for an accident where the policyholder contributed to the accident or a moving violation is between 20 and 40%. Your premium could easily have a normal increase due to the general experience of the company and then to that have a surcharge due to the accident easily totaling 50% I don't see how you can argue your case 7 months after the accident.

You will have to ask the insurance company.
