My son was in an accident a few months ago in which the guard rail was damaged. He was driving someone elses truck. The state wants to either file this against my sons insurance, under the liability part, or for my son to fork over $5,000.00 for repair. My question is, will placing a claim raise his rates? He has had a couple of tickets since he was rated for this policy, including an open container, and I am afraid if we file, they will look at all this and either drop him or raise the rates through the roof. Any advice from an insurance point of view, or any other point of view would be appreciated. We are really just wondering whether it would be cheaper to pay the increased premiums or to pay the damages. HELP!
