FAQ
If a driver hits your vehicle and flees, you can file a claim against your policy's uninsured motorist coverage. However, in some states, uninsured motorist coverage for property damage (UMPD) will not cover hit-and-run incidents.
The amount of your UMPD deductible will vary based on your state. It usually falls in between $100-$1,000. Note that some states may have a separate deductible for hit-and-run claims.
Uninsured / under-insured motorist (UM/UIM) coverage is an optional feature that can be added to an auto insurance policy. In Nevada, it covers losses in case of an accident in which another driver is at fault, but the other party carries no insurance or not enough insurance to cover your losses.
The amount of your UMPD deductible will vary based on your state. It usually falls in between $100-$1,000. Note that some states may have a separate deductible for hit-and-run claims.
Cons of UM/UIM Coverage One of the notable drawbacks of opting for UM/UIM coverage is the accompanying increase in insurance premiums. While this may seem like a financial trade-off, the peace of mind and the level of financial protection it offers in the face of unforeseen events often justify the higher costs.
California law does not require you to carry uninsured motorist (UM) or underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage—so, legally, you don't need either one. However, UM/UIM is an important and commonsense coverage to carry.
Time limits to file a UM/UIM claim If you plan to file an injury compensation claim against your insurance and use your UM/UIM coverage, the statute of limitations is six (6) years.
While not required, uninsured motorist coverage is highly recommended. Insurance companies must offer it, but drivers can opt out by signing a form.
