Underwriting Corner
All carriers order Motor Vehicle Reports (MVR) as a routine requirement depending on clients' age and the face amount applied for. Even your healthiest clients who are otherwise Preferred best risks will be charged higher rates if they have a poor driving record. Studies have show that this group does have a higher all-cause mortality risk.
When a carrier obtains a MVR they are checking the type of violation and the date of the violation. Moving violations, such as speeding, distracted driving, ignoring signs or traffic lights and even cell phone violations are checked. If more than one moving violations in the last few years, some carriers may not allow best rates. Each carrier has their own criteria (max number of moving violations in the past 1 to 5 years) that determines the risk class. Any
Driving While Impaired (DWI), Driving Under the Influence (DUI) or Reckless (Careless) Driving violations are looked at much more harshly and may even be substandard or declined. Of note, elderly clients with poor driving records may be subject to more stringent guidelines. If someone has been involved in any accident, it could appear on their MVR. It may help to obtain the details of the accident for the underwriter as your client may not have been at fault.
If client mentions any motor vehicle violations, it helps to check carrier Preferred guidelines prior to submitting any formal application.
