"Am I liable if someone else causes an accident while driving my car in Connecticut?"
Car insurance usually is covered by the vehicle that is involved in the accident. For example, if you allow another person to drive your vehicle and they cause an accident, the car owner’s insurance will be responsible to cover any claims for injuries or property damage that are caused by the driver you authorized to drive your vehicle.
Property Damage Coverage
Damage to your vehicle and any additional property damage will be covered by your insurance under Collision and Comprehensive policy limits, no matter if the driver is at fault for the accident and irrespective of who is driving the vehicle if the driver is authorized.
Med Pay Coverage
In Connecticut, in the case of an injury resulting from another driver operating your vehicle, if you purchased what is called Med Pay coverage on your policy, it provided coverage for medical treatment for any authorized drivers or occupants of the owner’s vehicle, who sustained injuries, irrespective of fault. Med Pay is also referred to as no-fault benefits.
Be Responsible when Loaning Your Vehicle
You take on a lot of risks when allowing another driver to borrow your vehicle. Most importantly you need to be sure they are currently licensed, and responsible drivers. If not, do yourself a favor and decline the request and offer to get them a driving service to take them where they need to go.
