will an accident with injuries raise insurance rates more than an accident w/o injuries?
I was just involved in an accident last week during an ice storm. He told the police I lost control of my car on ice and hit his trailer. I told the police that the back of his trailer crossed over the yellow lines, came into my lane, and hit my car. No witnesses and no citations were given. I'm guessing that we will both be 50% at fault since neither of us can prove anything. His car was fine, but the 16 foot trailer he was towing is totaled. My Suburban has ,800.00 worth of damage to it according to the State Farm adjuster. I got banged up pretty bad in the accident, but said I was OK because I'm afraid my insurance will go up more if I say I got injured. Does anyone know how the point system works in Oregon? I know this is why I pay for insurance, but the car repair bill is so large I'm afraid to add to it. Do more points get added to my record if there is an injury claim as well?
