Accident in company vehicle

Published Apr 16, 2011

I got into an accident in the company car, was charged failure to yield from private drive, with 3 points and 110 fine. I was deemed at fault. Is this going to affect my own insurance? Im listed as an occasional driver under my sister and dad's plan.

Typically speaking, the main factor is your driving record - not the car you're driving. Elements like speeding tickets, accidents or reckless driving violations can impact your premiums. And there are other factors like the vehicle insured, where you live and miles driven that also can affect your premiums. You should really talk to your agent or insurance provider who knows the terms of your policy and your history and will be able to go over your situation with you.
