Will My Insurance Rates Increase After a Car Accident?

An important question that people have after a car accident is “Will my insurance rates go up?” The answer to this question can depend on a number of factors, and is not always straightforward.

Insurance companies in Georgia are legally permitted to raise rates if they determine that their insured was at fault for the accident, as insurance premiums are based on the level of risk posed by a driver. A driver who is deemed to be “high risk” by an insurance carrier will pay higher rates. Typically, a Georgia insurance carrier will look back two to three years at your accident history in determining your insurance rates. However, some insurance companies will look back at your accident history from seven to ten years prior. Your rates may increase by as much as 50 or 60 percent after an accident if you were found to be at fault.

However, it’s important to note that not all accidents will result in increased insurance rates. For example, if you were not at fault for the accident, your rates may not increase. Additionally, some insurance companies offer accident forgiveness programs that allow drivers to avoid rate increases after their first accident.
