it shouldn't as long as the only ticket given was to your brother for his DUI. If he wrecked your truck or hit somebody else with it and they report it, then yes it will affect your insurance. But as long as his dumbself was the only thing to get a ticket, then you're fine

No, it won't affect your rates - unless he is on your policy. As long as he is not on your policy and covered by your insurance, the insurance company does not care. They won't even find out about it, because it will be on his driving record and not yours.

Not if hes not listed on your policy and if he is get him removed.

No


What kinda question is that?
You will probably have to have him excluded as a driver on your policy.

No you can't be penalized for the driving errors of someone else. If had gotten into an accident, it might be different. I wouldn't let him use my truck again until he clears up the citation satisfactorily.
Don't worry they won't increase your premium.

Unlikely; if you need more information on DUIs though, check out

They are the best DUI resource on the Internet. That site has helped a lot of people.

Good luck to you.

Nope. It is on his record not yours. However if he damaged your truck and you make a claim with your insurance, then it would raise your rates. But they cannot charge you more for somebody making a bad decision while using your car if no monetary damages are claimed.

It shouldn't.

If it's on his name, no. And... don't give him the truck next time :)

It shouldn't affect you at all as long as he has insurance himself and has a drivers license.. you should check your state websites or inquire within your insurance company just to make sure =)


"Generally, tickets your friends receive while driving your vehicle will not affect your insurance rates. The tickets for speeding, the DUI and driving without a license should all have been issued to your friend, the driver, and not the vehicle, so typically will show up on her driving record and affect her.

If your friend had crashed while driving your car it would have affected your insurance since most likely it would be your insurance that would have to pay out on claims resulting from an accident. "

As long as you have insurance on the truck then no it should not affect your rates. He is the idiot who got the DUI. What a selfish pig.

hell yea!! And your pocket book, because your gonna have to get your car out of the impound. Oh and you should get a new brother...just kidding. I'd atleast make him go to AA or rehab if this is a constant problem.
