I was in an accident in which I hit a parked car. I was of course determined to be at fault by my insurance company. I started a claim to have my insurance cover the damage to the parked car. I expect the damage to that car was around $1000. I received an estimate of $1500 for my car. My deductible is $1000. I am a 24 year old male that was previously accident free, or at least never at fault. Should I take insurance money to help pay for my car, or would that likely cause a larger increase in my insurance rates that ultimately make it not worth doing?
