In short, yes, a hit and run incident can most likely result in an increase in your insurance premiums. Hit and run accidents are considered at-fault accidents by insurance companies, which typically leads to an increase in rates for the policyholder.<\/p>\n

While it may seem unfair to be penalized for someone else’s actions, insurance companies base their rates on risk assessment, and being involved in a hit and run accident can indicate a higher risk of future claims for the policyholder.<\/p>\n

It is important to report the hit and run incident to your insurance company as soon as possible so they can begin the claims process and assess the damage to your vehicle. Providing as much information as you can, such as witness statements or surveillance footage, can help your insurance company with their investigation.<\/p>\n
