US Auto Insurance Guide

A newly licensed teen driver is probably more familiar with the rules of the road than you are. After all, he or she just took the test.

But many driving schools use a curriculum that has not been updated since the 1950s and requires only six to 10 hours of behind-the-wheel experience with an instructor. While graduated licensing programs have increased the number of supervised hours teens are driving, most of those hours are spent with parents, not a professional.

So what happens when your book-smart teen confronts real-world hazards? Car accidents.

Teens are four times more likely than adults to be involved in a car accident, the U.S.

Texting and driving is more likely to occur among young female drivers than young male drivers, according to a new study released by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety. Not only are girls twice as likely to text and talk on their phones when behind the wheel, but they tend to eat, drink and groom while in transit.

Women Distracted When Texting and Driving

The new study called Distracted Driving Among Newly Licensed Teen Drivers revealed that female teenage drivers have more tendencies toward distracted driving than their young male counterparts.

It is a good practice to always review documents in detail before signing them. Courts usually enforce the terms of a document even if one party did not read and understand it before signing. One very important document to read and understand in the property insurance context is a settlement release. A proposed release often comes when a policyholder is happy to have a resolution and is eager to receive the settlement proceeds and move on. That eagerness should not distract policyholders from reviewing and understanding the terms of a release, since it is likely a binding contract.

A recent case concerning a release decided by a Louisiana Court demonstrates the consequences of a policyholder’s failure to understand the consequences of signing a release. I

Car insurance is typically offered in two distinct varieties, depending on the policyholders state and local laws. The first is known as standard liability insurance, which requires one of the drivers involved in an accident to be at fault. That driver will then have to pay the vast majority of expenses related to the accident. In other states, a no fault policy allows both drivers to receive coverage of the accidents damages from their respective insurers, declaring neither of them at fault for causing the problem.

While no fault auto insurance is one of the most generous and preferable types of insurance, it is only offered in a few states. I

The British government is considering a plan to prevent uninsured drivers from refueling their cars.

Thousands of license-plate recognition cameras, put in place to keep drivers from leaving gas stations without paying, would be repurposed to cross check plates against the government’s tax and insurance records. Without a match for both in the database, the pump would not operate.

It was a great experience. Very quick. I appreciate it. Very helpful.

The government decided to make use of its omnipresent closed-circuit television cameras after a presentation from accounting firm Ernst & Young, which would help implement the new system.

“The key to this is simplicity. C
