Will your insurance go up if someone else was driving car and had an accident?

It depends on the specific insurance policy and the details of the accident. If the person driving your car is covered under your insurance as an additional driver, your insurance may not go up if they have an accident. However, if the driver is not covered under your policy, your insurance could be affected. Some factors that may be considered include:

- Driver's driving history

- Details of the accident

- Whether the driver has a valid driver's license

- Whether the driver was intoxicated or using drugs at the time of the accident

- Whether the driver was engaged in any illegal activity at the time of the accident

It's important to review your insurance policy carefully to understand the coverage and what to do if someone else has an accident while driving your car. You can also contact your insurance company to ask about specific scenarios and potential consequences.
