single vehicle accident claim and tread depth lets say you are in a single vehicle accident. and your rear tires are below the 2/32" tread marker. but tires weren't a factor in the crash, and you have collision and comprehensive, would you still be covered? |
Do everyone (and yourself) a flavour and just replace your rear tires. Thank you. /thread |
Like what? Broken glass or rodent eating your wires? I think so... But any moving accidents you are going to have a hard time saying that your tires had nothing to do with it. Posted via RS Mobile |

also im not asking if tires would be covered for insurance, im asking if my car in its entirety could be denied claim due to the tires |

In that case, could you please explain what happened then? And why the tires weren't a factor in the crash? What was the factor then? The rain? Alcohol? Distracted driving? And P.S...why is this in the police forum? These two forums could have been more appropriate: Vancouver Auto Chat - Vancouver's Top Classifieds and Automotive Forum - REVscene.net Vancouver Off-Topic / Current Events - Vancouver's Top Classifieds and Automotive Forum - REVscene.net Oh wait....you are afraid you would get failed for making such a post :suspicious: |

i figured this would be the most relevent to insurance rather than just automotive. driving without consideration was a ticket i got. so that would be a factor in the crash. no rain or alcohol. |
That doesn't tell us anything other than your tires were so bad that you couldn't avoid an accident when you were sober and there was no rain. How do you figure that the tires didn't play a factor? You want help/answers, then tell us all the details before we can help/answer. |

So yes, the tires are a factor. |
How bad is the damage? I'm going to make some assumptions here. You are considering getting ICBC to fix your car, which would lead me to believe your damage is substantial. For substantial damage caused by yourself, you must have been going pretty fast, regardless of tires. I can't think of any other situation where you can cause big damage to your car, unless you hit something hard, which means you were going fast. I'm going to guess you were speeding by yourself with bald tires, slipped, and crashed, and now are afraid of getting shafted with a huge bill, rather than get your car fixed for $300. Like everyone said, give us the full rundown of what happened so we can help you/make fun of you, but as it is now, yes your tires probably will be taken into consideration. Especially since ICBC will do anything it can to deny your claim. |

And if ICBC is investigating, I'm pretty damned sure they'll look for reasons to not cover you. And not having your car in what would be considered driveable condition (worn out tires would get you taken off the road by a cop who noticed), I'm pretty sure voids your insurance if it can be traced to that. |
What's all the commotion for? Single vehicle accident is always out of ur own pocket unless u hit a animal.. Either way u stuck with a bill... It's gonna be 300 deductible plus surcharge on ur insurance for the next few years or u just pay ur damages urself and don't go over Icbc... Don't see how u could possibly get anything free fixed out of your situation lol Posted via RS Mobile |
