I was a passanger in a car, boyfriend driving can I file a claim if he lives with me?

Asked by a user in Denver, CO - over 2 years ago.

Depending upon state law the answer may vary but generally speaking the answer is yes. Most states have family immunity principles that keep suits between spouses but not boyfried and girlfriend. The more important issue is does the policy exclude the claim, if the boyfriend was driving your car and you were a passenger that could be a problem depnding upon how the policy is written.
