The mechanic that works on my car get into an accident. Should the insurance of the mechanic or his shop take care of the claim?

In an auto accident, the insurance follows the car, so your auto insurance will pay for damages to any other vehicle and any injuries to other parties in the loss. If you have collision coverage, your policy will pay to repair your car less the deductible. After the claim is settled, your insurance company may try to recover the payments from the mechanic’s business insurance. If they are successful, your deductible will be refunded.Since the mechanic is not a driver on your policy, your rates will not be affected. The mechanic’s driving record will show the accident and his auto insurance rates could increase due to the accident.If your insurance company does not choose tos ubrogate against the mechanic, you could file a claim against his business policy for your deductible. You could also go to small claims court to try to get your deductible back, but hopefully your insurance company will subrogate.
