Question
Is a hydroplaning accident my daughter's fault?
My daughter totaled her car in a hydroplaning accident. Is she at fault when there is a torrential downpour?
Answer
Unfortunately, insurance companies list almost all single-vehicle accidents as at-fault on your claims history. This would likely be considered an at-fault collision accident. There is no other party at fault and this can be seen as a failure to maintain control of the vehicle.
