Completing Paperwork For Your Personal Injury Case
What to Do if You Have an Auto Accident While Uninsured
Christopher Wilson
Nobody plans to let their car insurance policy lapse, let alone get into an auto wreck. At the same time, a lack of planning is not an excuse for being ill prepared to deal with the financial and legal ramifications that can happen as a result of being an uninsured motorist. In order to help minimize the penalties you may face in the near future, here are the first important things you should do right away.
Planning Your Defense With An Auto Accident Attorney
If were the driver in an accident where the vehicle had no valid insurance coverage, you need to determine what your best defense is, with the help of a well versed car accident attorney. First and foremost, you and your attorney need to go over state laws which cover penalties and fines for uninsured motorists. There is a possibility that your drivers license may be rescinded for a period of time, so don't just run out and get car insurance now thinking that you will be able to proceed normally.
Contact Your Local Department Of Motor Vehicle
There may already be a report in the system that precludes you from using your local DMV services, as a result of being caught driving while uninsured. Find out if there are required driver educational classes that you must complete or a period of time that must lapse before you will be able to regain your driving privileges, or renew your drivers license. It is better to know upfront what your rights are as they pertain to operating a motor vehicle now so that you are able to get proper auto coverage and figure out how you will be able to travel in the meantime.
Work On Getting Valid Auto Coverage
The only thing worse than getting into an accident without car insurance is repeating the same mistake. Refrain from driving until you get the go ahead from both an auto accident attorney and your current car insurance company, so that you are able to keep the number of points you may already have on your drivers license to a minimum.
In some cases, being an uninsured motorist is a matter of making a small but serious billing error, or failing to otherwise heed directives from your insurer. In these cases, obtaining retroactive car insurance might be a possibility, allowing you to keep driving, maintain driving privileges and avoiding being sued in civil court in a liability lawsuit.
