Car Accidents in Utah
In Utah, car accidents are a frequent occurrence across both urban centers and suburban towns like Lehi. According to the Utah Department of Public Safety, many crashes in the state happen on two-lane city streets and involve distracted or aggressive driving. While some are minor fender benders, many result in injuries requiring ongoing care. Victims should understand their options in the days and weeks following a collision.
One issue that comes up frequently is how to handle vehicle damage and transportation after an accident:
- Repair Estimates: After an accident, your insurance company may suggest a preferred repair shop. However, you’re allowed to get quotes from any licensed facility. A second opinion can reveal hidden damage that may not be covered in the first estimate.
- Rental Vehicle Coverage: If your car is not drivable, your policy may include rental reimbursement. However, this coverage often has a daily limit. Be sure to check what your policy allows and plan accordingly to avoid out-of-pocket costs.
- Total Loss Evaluation: When damage exceeds the value of the car, insurers may declare it a total loss. Understanding your vehicle’s pre-accident value is key. You can negotiate with the insurer if their offer doesn’t match what similar cars sell for in your area.
- Diminished Value Claims: Even if your car is repaired, it may lose market value after a crash. Utah allows for diminished value claims in some cases, helping you recover the difference between pre and post-accident value.
- Transportation Alternatives: If rental coverage is delayed or denied, victims may qualify for public transportation reimbursement or rideshare options depending on their policy. Keep receipts for all transit costs in case they’re eligible for repayment.
