Car Insurance Question  I have liability insurance with uninsured and underinsured motorist also no fault. My 17 year old daughter, who doesn't live with me, borrowed my car and hit a deer and totaled it. She isn't on my policy she has only borrowed my car a couple of times. I would like to know if this will cover the balance owed on the car and the medical bills of the passenger.

It is comprehensive coverage that usually covers damage done to a vehicle due to a run-in with an animal, such as a deer. It does not appear that this was part of your insurance policy. Since you are the owner of the vehicle it is your insurance that is primary on the vehicle. If it does not cover the damages then it could fall onto your daughter's insurance policy to be the secondary or excess if her policy permits.

To find out if either insurance company will pay for the damages or medical bills you will need to contact both of the insurance companies and get specifics regarding your policy coverages.
