In the event of an accident or loss, your nephew should give notice to his insurance company promptly. This will protect his insurance company's interest. Failure to notify his insurance company may jeopardize his coverage under his policy. Rates do not usually go up if the claim is just reported, and the insurance company does not need to pay a claim. The rates usually go up only when the insurance company has to pay for the claim.
