Do You Have to List House Hold Members on Auto Insurance Policy?
Reader’s Question:
What if I don’t want to list a household member on my car insurance policy in ?

You should always include all household members on your application in your car insurance.
With each insurers it is different. Some insurance companies sells insurance policies for different insurance carriers. Some auto insurance application will ask you the appropriate questions to meet the insurer’s guidelines and the state rules/laws.
Insurance companies need to know about all household members because states laws for personal liability sometimes include all household members. So, the insurance company is representing you and covering you so they need to be aware of the entire risk they are protecting.
Multi Car Auto Insurance Rates in Georgia
Reader’s Question:
I have 2 vehicles with full coverage and a deductible on collision coverage. My wife backed into mine damaging both of vehicles. Will I have to pay 2 deductibles? How will this affect my car insurance rate premiums in Georgia?

Thank you for your question. I’m assuming that you and your wife are insured by the same insurance provider.
If so, some insurance providers waive one of the deductibles if both policyholders are insured by them. I have seen some situations where insurance companies charge both deductibles too. You need to report this loss to your insurance providers if you have not already. You could also ask them about your situation with the insurance claims adjuster. It is up to the verbiage in your auto insurance policy as to if they can charge it or not. Some insurance policies define an incident as a single occurrence while other insurance policies define it as a per auto occurrence.
Each insurance carrier has its own method of evaluating policyholders, so the insurance points on your driving history may or may not have a direct impact on the auto insurance rates you pay for car insurance. The amount of insurance claims and the costs of those insurance claims are also factored into your auto insurance rate in in Northeast Cobb, Georgia.
What Is Car Insurance Lapse?

What is the meaning of an auto lapsed policy in the state of Georgia? How much is the fee?
Griffin
Sandy Springs, GA
According to the Georgia Department of Revenue (DOR) a lapse is defined as ten or more days where the records show that your car was not covered by a car insurance policy.
If the auto insurance lapse fee is not paid within thirty days of the letter’s date, the car registration will be suspended. To terminate the suspension, the car owner must now pay the $25 lapse fee in addition to the $60 reinstatement fee as well as show proof of car insurance.
To get more information with regards to an insurance lapse in Georgia you may contact the DOR.
