Does AAA cover deer accidents?

If you are talking about their roadside service, sure, they will come tow the car to the repair shop or to your house for you. If you are talking about AAA insurance on the vehicle, it depends on whether or not you said "yes" when they asked if you wanted collisions coverage. If you did, they will cover repairs, less your deductible unless the car is totaled. If it is totaled, they will give you fair market value less your deductible and take the car away. If you didn't, they won't.

If you mean AAA insurance...probably. If you mean AAA roadside service...it's good for a tow...that's all.

aaa is an auto club for towing breakdowns accidents and roadside service if needed aaa will tow your car from where you hit the deer to repair shop but does not cover cost of repairing your vehicle that would be up to your insurance co


LARGENCHARGE
it depends if the damage is from hitting the deer or swerving to miss it. if you swerved, and hit something else, no they will not cover it. if you hit the deer they will cover it if you have full coverage

This is considered an act of nature.

I have had AAA for several years and have had 2 wrecks with deer.

Both times the deductible was waived.


!~"Fish On"~!
No. That's an expense out of your pocket.There is nothing in the the clauses that states that mother nature should pick up the tab for you hitting wild animals or herbivores.


trux4me
yeah, they'll tow the deer all the way home

Remember that auto insurance various state by state. I know that you are probably familar with these terms. I extracted these important terms from AAA.com; If you are not cleared contact them.


Comprehensive coverage will help pay for the damage or replacement of your automobile from fire, theft or vandalism. Comprehensive coverage will also pay for losses involving the collision with an animal, as well as some natural disasters such as a fallen tree. Just like with collision, you will be asked to select a deductible. This represents the amount of money you will be required to pay out of pocket for repair. You can have comprehensive coverage without collision, but not collision without comprehensive.

What is collision coverage, and do I need it?

Collision coverage will help pay for the repair or replacement of your automobile if you are involved in an accident that is either your fault or if your car hits another vehicle or object. You will have to choose a deductible. The higher the deductible you choose, the lower you premium will be, however, that is the amount you will be required to pay out of your own pocket if you have a collision loss.

What is Liability Coverage?

Liability coverage will help you compensate others for their losses if you are responsible for the damage to another person’s vehicle or personal property. Liability coverage will also help cover losses if you are responsible for the injury of another person, as well as helps pay for related lawsuits. Liability coverage is made up of two main parts, Bodily Injury & Property Damage.

I believe that this is referred to as an act of God and in most cases they will fix it but you can count on a premium increase.

no!

If you have comprehensive coverage then you're only responsible for the deductible.

Only if it's a member and has a valid driver's license.

Do you mean AAA insurance or AAA the roadside assistance program?

The insurance will (it's a single driver, insured at fault accident). The roadside assistance program will tow your car no matter what happened.


Mr. Answer
Sometimes, call them. They do in some cases. Geico and progressive cover anything


RT 66
Do you have full coverage.


mbrcatz
No. AAA is an agency. The only thing they "cover" is towing service. They can sell you car insurance policies, though, because they are an insurance AGENCY. So your policy may or may not cover collision with a deer. In most states, comprehensive is the name of the coverage, that covers hitting a deer. Sometimes, if you have collision, but no comp, the collision will cover it.

CALL THEM OR CHECK WITH THE BOARD OF INSURANCE.
