∙ 15y agoMost insurance companies will specify that the driver must be 'road legal'. That means a valid driving licence for the vehicle must be held, an expired licence is not a 'valid' licence.
They should not be held responsible as it is people's choice to continue to smoke despite all the health warnings.
The person operating the vehicle is the first one responsible. The owner of the vehicle can also be held responsible. If your under 18 and an adult allowed you to drive, they can be held responsible if, they knew you would operate it recklessly or knew you didn't have a licence.
yes.
No, a person who smokes is responsible for anything they smoke. Tobacco companies do not force people to smoke, and therefore are not responsible for that person's illness or death.
Anyone that is in a vehicle can be charged or held responsible for what ever crime has occurred.
YES. As owner of that vehicle you can be sued for things that happen in it. Most insurance companies cover people you loan your car to as "permissive users" but check with your company.
in Wisconsin the answer would be NO the driver is held responsible as you are to have control of your vehicle 100% of the time. that's why insurance companies say even if it is not your fault you are still 10% at fault. i would think it is the same for other states. you could call a dmv in that state or the police department and ask.
The vehicle will be repossessed and the leasor will be held responsible for the unpaid balance of the lease.
You will be, of course. You were driving and are fully responsible for anything that the vehicle does.
Yes. That's a common misunderstanding by a lot of people. You are responsible for the entire loan amount. The vehicle title is held as security for the loan but any amount that is not covered when the vehicle is auctioned off is still owed.
If impound was caused by your vehicle parked illegally, then the impound lot or the towing company could be held responsible. If it was impounded because it was retrieved as a stolen vehicle, then no one can be held responsible. However, in both cases, the personal belongings in the vehicle can be covered by either your own auto insurance under the Comprehensive portion of your policy or by your own homeowners/renters insurance under the Personal Property portion of your policy. They are subject to your deductible/s.
