Comprehensive would but your deductible would come off the top. Most
companies would argue that you should have reported it before now though...
If you submit a claim it would probably make sense to have a body shop do
the work.

I dont know about your local Saturn shop, but a good one may take thier own
initiative and work with you and your ins. co. to get a speedy repair and
get thier retribution back from the ins. co. My old shpo in Stuart di this
with many ppl after the last 3 hurricanes.

Depends on the cause of damage. If it was while driving down the road
or from another car impact it would be collision. If it was storm,
fire or vandal damage it would be comprehensive. Both have their own
deductable though depending on your policy.

As I recall he hit a raccoon.... that's comp like it would be if you hit a
deer (gotten a couple of them over the years).

I could be wrong but that is collision. ALso while most people do not
know it you can sue the state (most do it if you ask them enough)
because if it was a regulated animal for hunting, the state is
responsible for the damage it causes. They di not tell you that though
unless you push the issue. You will need a police report at time of
damage.

This might be dependent upon the state... I know that my claims were paid
under comp. In fact, the first time it happened I didn't have collision on
the car as it was rather old. It's one of those "act of God" things.

Most states do not tell you that they are liable but they are. The key
here is if you hit a regulated animal. If it is a animal that the
state names as controlled for hunting or to not hunt, you have grounds
to file a claim against them because they "control" or "manage" it so
they are responsible for it.

Interesting. My understanding was (at least in the state I was in when I
heard this) that the opposite is true -- you kill a deer with your car (at
least outside of hunting season; maybe even during season if you don't have
a license), you pay a fine for violating the game control law.

Law or not I cannot see how that could stand in court if you hit a
deer. Something very fishy here. If the state did not regulate the
animal then they can claim they are not liable.

I can't imagine that's correct. Anywhere.
