本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛I will try and answer your questions, however please remember all insurance companies are different and I am only really in tune with State Farm, however we all follow for the most part the same guidelines.
With respect to your questions, here are my notes:
Insurance companies no longer rate drivers as individual, they rate as a household, so if there are 2 drivers and only 1 car, both licences determine the rate of insurance, therefore the wife's accident will play a part in the rate even though the husband may be the only driver. The only way around that is to have the wife surrender her licence, but can't say that I agree with that as she would then have to start all over in the licensing process again.
Most companies will not "exclude" a wife as a driver - what that means is that she keeps her licence but if she touches the car, there is no coverage. That is a thought...
If they separate, he would need to prove separation. We normally request drivers licence showing another address - however, again if she touches the car, no coverage as technically, she is considered an excluded driver in this manor as well.
A bike is considered a vehicle (not motorized) but falls into the same category with respect to tickets issued by the police. A careless ticket is considered a major driving offence and they are quite steep in price. This type of ticket stays on his record for 5 years (as it is a major conviction) and yes, would effect his insurance rate on a car quote for the full 5 years.更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
