Response: An excellent question. Now the fist option you should go for is to ask the car driver to pay the money out of his pocket. I do also understand that if the driver cannot afford to be insured he would not be able to afford your medical treatment cost also. Let me tell you that if under your teen auto insurance policy which has coverage for uninsured motorist or uninsured driver, than you can claim under your own auto insurance policy for the treatment and injury and your insurance company will pay you. It is highly recommended that teen auto insurance should defintely have the coverage of uninsured motorist.

Here is the latest news of your town which appeared on the P/R web news just today the 29th October 2009.

On average, the number of Texans hit by cars spikes 23.3% during Halloween week, according to Allstate Insurance Company. The insurer recently looked at its Texas auto insurance claims involving pedestrians over the past five years and found a dramatic jump in accidents around trick-or-treat time. Last year, Allstate says its number of claims involving pedestrians more than doubled over Halloween week compared with the rest of 2008.

The Allstate data coincides with a report from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety that found October 31 is the second highest pedestrian death day of the year behind Fourth of July.

“Because this Halloween falls on a weekend, there may be even more kids and cars on the road later at night, potentially creating an even more dangerous situation,” said Brent Walters, an Allstate agent in Beaumont. “Whether you’re behind the wheel or walking with your kids, it’s critical to remain alert.”

Allstate says on average, it receives 13.2 bodily injury claims involving pedestrians or bicyclists in Texas during Halloween week, compared with an average of 10.7 a week during the rest of the year.

It is honestly a time to be careful and check your own auto insurance coverage for making sure that you have the right coverage. Uninsured motorist coverage is a cheap auto insurance coverage.
