Did You Know?
An error on your auto insurance application can end up costing you more money. Providing false information on your application can lead to increased premiums, policy cancellations or limited financial assistance in the event of an accident.
Not listing all driversโAnyone who drives your vehicle, even if itโs just for a short period of time, should be listed on your policy.
Giving a false vehicle locationโBy not reporting your carโs true location, the accuracy of your insurance quotes can be impacted.
Not reporting infractionsโItโs best to be honest about your driving record to avoid any conflicts or discrepancies.
Not disclosing business usesโIn some cases, you may need a specialized policy when driving for business purposes or for a rideshare company, like Uber or Lyft. Failing to take the proper steps to ensure an appropriate policy for your specific driving purposes could lead to a lack of coverage following an accident.
Failing to update life changesโChanging home addresses or allowing another family member to start driving your vehicle are all life changes that need to be updated on your policy.
