Did you know that in Ohio nearly one in three drivers is uninsured, according to a 2023 Insurance Research Council survey?

Given how many uninsured drivers are on the road, it’s important for all Americans to know what to do in the event of an accident involving an uninsured driver.

With that in mind, we’re sharing an overview today of key steps:

🚓 Call the Police - A police report is essential when filing an insurance claim.
🪪 Exchange Information - Collect any details the other driver can provide, like their address and phone number.
📷 Take Photos - Document the damage to your vehicle as long as it's safe to do so.
📝 Document Everything - Note down everything about the incident, including VIN numbers and license plates.
🤐 Be Mindful of Your Words - Anything you say can be noted in the police report. Avoid admitting fault.
💵 Decline Any Cash Offers - Accepting money on the spot can complicate your ability to pursue further claims.
📩 File a Claim Promptly - Contact your independent insurance agent.

While it might be challenging to recover costs from an uninsured driver, policies, especially those with add-ons like collision coverage and personal injury protection (PIP), are designed to prevent complete loss and cover additional expenses.

🔍 Have questions about your coverage or interested in adding more protection? Reach out to your Independent Agent promptly - Don't delate the claims process!

WHAT DOES A WET FALL MEAN FOR WHEAT?
If an insured has eligible acres that remain unplanted due to an insurable cause of loss and elects the prevented planting option, then a notice of loss must be submitted after the Final Plant Date, but not later than 72 hours (3 days) after the late planting period (October 28th for a county with an October 20th Final Plant Date or November 2nd for a county with an October 25th FPD).

PREVENTED PLANTING
The prevented planting rules for fall seeded wheat are the same as
for spring seeded crops in most cases.
• If you are prevented from planting wheat in a county with only
a fall final planting date, and
• You submit a prevented planting claim;
• You can choose to plant a spring seeded crop the
following spring.
If you choose to plant a spring seeded crop, you will receive 35%
of the prevented planting indemnity and pay 35% of the premium
on the fall seeded wheat. The spring seeded crop must be insured
and you will pay the full premium and have full coverage. Your
Actual Production History (APH) for the prevented planting acres
will be 60% of the approved yield for the unit.
Prevented planting coverage will not be provided for any acreage
on which the insured crop is prevented from being planted if you
or any other person receives a prevented planting payment for any
crop on the same acreage in the same crop year unless you are in
an area that allows double cropping as an insurable practice. If you
submit a prevented planting claim on fall seeded wheat, prevented
planting coverage will not be available on those acres for spring
planted corn or soybeans unless such crop acreage is insurable
as a double cropping practice. Consider this carefully before
submitting a prevented planting claim for fall seeded wheat.

Contact your agent for specific questions or to file a claim!

Excited to be providing Wyandot County Junior Fair advisory board members with t-shirts this year! These folks volunteer their time and sacrifice vacation days or sleep and usually all they get in return is complaints when something goes wrong at a show. If you see them out and about, thank them for volunteering!

We're about halfway through February and the discovery period in Ohio for crop insurance projected prices. With current commodity prices and lower volatility than last year premiums should be trending down.
