Here's a common question.❓
"If someone hits my vehicle while it is parked, what can I do to protect myself?" 🚗
Hopefully, the person responsible left a note. Or there are security cameras 🎥 or witnesses 👀 of the incident.
But if you can't locate the person who caused the damage, it's your auto policy's collision coverage, which will likely cover the loss.
A deductible would apply here.
And, collision coverage is optional, so if you chose not to buy it, you would have to pay for repairs out of pocket.
Uninsured motorist property damage coverage could also pay for damage caused by hit-and-run drivers in states where this type of coverage is available.
If your insurer locates the responsible party for the damage and recovers some or all of the repair costs, you may get a refund of your collision deductible.
Side note: Only 12 percent of all reported hit-and-runs (2016 statistics) were solved, so making sure you have the coverage to protect yourself makes sense.
John's life changed in just seconds as he lit his gas grill to cook a couple of steaks. 🍖
What he didn't know was that his wife had tried to light 🔥 the grill 30 minutes earlier, and she had left the valve of the propane tank wide open, with all of the grill's burners set on high without actually lighting it. 😳
The wind had been blowing, so neither of them had smelled the gas.💨
When John hit the switch to light the grill, the gas that had accumulated exploded into a ball of fire. 💥
And John endured second- and third-degree burns over 20 percent of his body.😰
According to the National Fire Protection Association, there are roughly 8900 grilling incidents a year in the U.S., resulting in an average $118 million in damage.
How can you reduce your risks?
▶️ Stop oiling your food with greasy marinades.
▶️ Keep a "Class K" fire extinguisher near your grilling station.
▶️ Keep combustible materials at least 10 feet away from your grill.
▶️ Designate one grillmaster for the meal to interact with the grill.
▶️ Go out to dinner instead. 😉
Here's to a safe grilling season!
