Accident Terms and Definitions

 
 

Loss Due To Fire Title
The vehicle sustained major damage due to fire. In most states, fire damage titles are issued when the cost of repairing the vehicle for safe operation exceeds its fair market value.

Binder
A temporary or preliminary agreement which provides coverage until a policy can be issued/delivered.

Subrogation
The process in which an insurance company, after paying a loss to its insured, recovers the amount of the loss for damages (plus the insured's deductible) from the legally liable party.

Producer
A term applied to an agent, solicitor or other person who sells insurance.

Full Tort
With this selection you retain unrestricted rights to bring suit against the negligent party.

Venue
The specific county, city or geographical area in which a court has jurisdiction

Underinsured Motorist Coverage
Pays for bodily injury or wrongful death caused by an underinsured motor vehicle (that is, a vehicle which is insured, but at an amount that is less than your uninsured motorist bodily injury (UMBI) limits).

Vehicle ID No. (VIN)
This 17 character number is unique to each vehicle. It identifies characteristics of the vehicle, including manufacturer, year, model, body, engine specifications, and serial number.

Total Loss
An insurance company declares a vehicle a total loss when a claim exceeds the full value of the vehicle. Insurance companies typically take possession and obtain the title of such vehicles.

Insured
The person(s) entitled to coverage in case of an accident or loss.
