Answers:

does anyone know If you go to the DMV to get a replacement Driver's license & have a warrant what happens?

Miles are irrelevant, they aren't worried about if its kept in a garage as they cannot refuse cover because you didn't put it in there one day and cannot prove that is not the cars as long as you have a garage. the alarm/immobiliser they can check though. It doesn't matter unless your car is recovered when stolen, but the savings are too small to be worth the risk of trouble.

If you have a smash without the immobiliser you said was in there your still covered unless the immobiliser you said WASN'T there caused the smash, other than that it's not an issue that could cause a crash so you are still covered. But if your car is stolen then recovered damaged but without the immobiliser your cover wouldn't be valid.

If you don't tell the truth and something happens, for example, your car is stolen from outside your house (when you've told them it is in the garage) then you are not covered and you lose everything. Oh, and it's also a criminal offence (fraud) not to tell the truth for material gain (lower insurance premium).

Was in a car accident whilst on the way to garage to get tyres changed and....?

If you don't claim for a theft then they won't care if you put the in a garage or not, if your car is stolen at night from outside your house and you claim then you'll have to explain why it wasn't in the garage. Milage you have some leeway over, if you say your car has an alarm it has to have one, if your car is stolen and then recovered and they find there was no alarm they won't pay out for any damage caused.

Do we need to carry car insurance for our 2nd car if we have full insurance on our first?


The first thing to understand is that for an insurer to void your claim/policy any loss will have to be directly linked to the lie you have told. For example if you tell the insurer that your car has an alarm when it doesn't, if your car is stolen they will look into the security and reject your claim completely - leaving you to pick up the entire cost. However, if you had lied about the number of miles you drive and your car is stolen this is unlikely to result in a claim being rejected.

If an accident victim is without his car, should the accused insurance carrier compensate the victim ?


Furthermore, insurers share details on fraud so if you are found to be fraudulent by one, you will find it hard to get insurance elsewhere, and if you do it will be very expensive.

With regard to no claim bonus, this is an established system in this country and insurers share info when you move companies. 1 year at one insurer = one year at another and companies often cross check this detail.

what is the penalty for driving without auto insurance?

Silly person. It is a matter of disclosure. Answer any question untruthfully, and you could end up with a denied claim. If you get a security discount, for instance, because it is parked in a garage with the alarm set, then the car is stolen from your yard and they discover you have no garage, they don't have to pay. This applies to home insurance as well as auto.

cheap car insurance for some one who has had a crash?

You are looking at this from the wrong way. The reason why the insurance companies ask wether the car is garaged or how many miles you drive is to get the prices down but if you answer dishonestly and someone steals your car from the side of the road outside of your residence then they won,t pay out for your loss as you did not keep your car in the way you said you did.The same applies with mileage, if you do more miles than you tell them and have an accident then they won't pay out because you have not been honest. I call these clauses "get out" clauses because if you don't tell the insurance people the truth they can use that as a reason to get out of paying you for losses. Summing up, if you are not honest with insurance companies then don't exect them to pay you or back you if anything happens to your car even if it wasn't your fault. They have more information all the time about people because it is all stored on computers and insurance companies talk to each other. If you really want to get insurance prices down then report all the lowlife scum that steals cars and those that drive with no insurance as that raises the cost for everyone else.
