Reader’s Question:
Is there a cheap female car insurance in Houston Texas? How will I get a lower rate just for being a female?

There is a cheap female insurance in Texas, just like anywhere else in the country. Women in general are normally charged lower because insurance companies believe that female drivers drive less fast and are less prone to accidents. A cheap female insurance in Texas can be found by asking your relatives and friends for suggestions concerning the best insurance companies in Texas.
Another way of finding a cheap female insurance in Texas is to get a business directory and get the names of every insurer in your place. When you have drawn up the list, go online and check each one’s website. From there, you will know about each of the companies background, their programs and any discounts and schemes they are offering. Out of all those companies in your list, narrow them down to those that are providing the cheapest insurances. You can also draw up another list of insurers that specialize in providing coverage to female drivers. These insurers are often the ones with the most affordable premiums because they have tailored their programs to fit this group’s needs. You can also use online calculators to get an idea of how much your vehicle will cost to insure. Once you have the figures, you can then choose which plan you want then call the insurance company and arrange to meet with an agent.
Auto Insurance Accident – Do You Have To Get Name and Address?
Reader’s Question:
When an accident occurs and you don’t receive proof of car insurance, name, or address from the other motorist who hit you and they file a claim against you, can you turn them in for failing to show you with proof of their car insurance? I live in Houston.

If a law enforcement officer was not contacted or did not respond then there is really no recourse you have to obtain this information.
All accidents should be reported to your insurance carrier in Houston even if the police are not called. In this manner, they have a record of your side of the accident. This also protects you from incidents such as the one you mention wherein the information later changes and they file a claim against you. You should contact your insurance carrier, if you have not yet, and tell them what happened. At this point, it will be up to a claims adjuster to decide whether or not an insurance claim can be made against your auto insurance policy. The same would also apply to the other party’s insurance company.

DWI Penalties in Texas – Will I Go To Jail?
Reader’s Question:
I know in my state, there is a different penalty for a DWI arrest with a child inside the car. Is this kind of DWI offense more serious than the DWI arrest that caused harm to someone in Texas?
William
Houston, TX
Thanks for asking William. The state of Texas has enacted a variety of different laws and regulations that are each designed to help eliminate the increasing number of DWI accidents, injuries, and fatalities occurring within the state by making it less appealing for underage individuals to purchase alcohol, less appealing for people over the age of 21 to sell alcohol to underage individuals, and less appealing for individuals to drive while intoxicated.
DWI is always considered to be a serious and major offense, but driving with a child in the car while intoxicated is considered to be a much more serious offense. If an individual is pulled over and had DWI arrest and there was a child under the age of 15 present in the car, the driver will be arrested for felony DWI. An individual convicted of felony DWI will receive a minimum of 180 days in jail to a maximum of two years in jail and may be imposed with up to a $10,000 fine. It is also important to keep in mind that the individual may be charged with other crimes related to the well-being and safety of the child in the car depending on the specific situation.
Even though the act of DWI with a child present in the car is considered to be an extremely serious offense, it is not the most serious alcohol-related offense for which an individual can be charged. If an individual is involved in a motor accident in which someone was seriously injured or harmed and it is determined that the individual was driving while intoxicated, the individual will be arrested for DWI and for intoxication assault.
