Allstate Insurance Company
Allstate Insurance Company
The Company Named in the Policy Declarations
A Stock Company
Home Office: Northbrook, Illinois
This policy is a legal contract between you and us.
A coverage applies only when a premium for it is
shown on the Policy Declarations. If more than one
auto is insured, premiums will be shown for each
auto. If you pay the premiums when due and comply
with the policy terms, Allstate, relying on the
information you have given us, makes the following
agreements with you.
When And Where The Policy Applies
Your policy applies only during the policy period.
During this time, it applies to losses to the auto,
accidents and occurrences within the United States
of America, its territories or possessions or Canada,
or between their ports. The policy period is shown
on the Policy Declarations.
Changes
Premium Changes
The premium for each auto is based on information
Allstate has received from you or other sources.
You agree to cooperate with us in determining if this
information is correct, if it is complete, and if it
changes during the policy period. You agree that if
this information changes or is incorrect or
incomplete, we may adjust your premium
accordingly during the policy period.
Changes which result in a premium adjustment are
contained in our rules. These include, but are not
limited to:
1. autos insured by the policy, including changes
in use.
2. drivers residing in your household, their ages or
marital status.
3. coverages or coverage limits.
4. rating territory.
5. discount eligibility.
Any calculation or adjustment of your premium will
be made using the rules, rates and forms in effect,
and on file if required, for our use in your state.
Coverage Changes
When Allstate broadens a coverage during the policy
period without additional charge, you have the new
feature if you have the coverage to which it applies.
The new feature applies on the date the coverage
change is effective in your state. Otherwise, the
policy can be changed only by endorsement. Any
change in your coverage will be made using the
rules, rates and forms in effect, and on file if required,
for our use in your state.
Duty To Report Autos
You must tell us within 60 days when you acquire an
additional or replacement auto. If you don’t, certain
coverages of this policy may not apply.
COMBINING LIMITS OF TWO OR MORE
AUTOS PROHIBITED
IF YOU HAVE TWO OR MORE AUTOS INSURED IN
YOUR NAME AND ONE OF THESE AUTOS IS
INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT, ONLY THE COVERAGE
LIMITS SHOWN ON THE POLICY DECLARATIONS
FOR THAT AUTO WILL APPLY. WHEN YOU HAVE
TWO OR MORE AUTOS INSURED IN YOUR NAME
AND NONE OF THEM IS INVOLVED IN THE
ACCIDENT, YOU MAY CHOOSE ANY SINGLE AUTO
SHOWN ON THE POLICY DECLARATIONS AND THE
COVERAGE LIMITS APPLICABLE TO THAT AUTO
WILL APPLY.
THE LIMITS AVAILABLE FOR ANY OTHER AUTO
COVERED BY THE POLICY WILL NOT BE ADDED TO
THE COVERAGE FOR THE INVOLVED OR CHOSEN
AUTO.
Transfer
This policy can’t be transferred to anyone without our
written consent. However, if you die, coverage will
be provided until the end of the policy period for:
1. your legal representative while acting as such,
and
2. persons covered on the date of your death.
Cancellation
You may cancel this policy by writing us the future
date you wish to stop coverage.
Allstate may cancel part or all of this policy by
mailing notice to you at your last known address. If
we cancel because you didn’t pay the premium, the
date of cancellation will be at least 10 days after the
date of mailing. If we cancel for any reason other

than non-payment of premium, we will give you
notice as follows:
1. During the first 60 days the original policy is in
effect, we will give you at least 10 days notice of
cancellation.
2. After the first 60 days, we will give you 30 days
notice of cancellation.
Proof of mailing the notice will be proof of notice. A
refund, if due, will be proportional to the time your
policy has been in effect, but cancellation will be
effective even if the refund is not made immediately.
After your original policy has been in effect 60 days,
Allstate won’t cancel your policy unless:
1. you don’t pay the premium when it’s due;
2. you or any member of your household are
convicted of a crime due to acts which increase
the hazard we insure against;
3. Fraud or material misrepresentation is used in
obtaining the policy or making a claim;
4. An act or omission, or a violation of any
condition of the policy, occurs during the policy
period which substantially and materially
increases the hazard we insure against;
5. A material change in the nature or extent of the
risk occurs during the policy period which
causes the risk of loss to be substantially and
materially increased; or
6. Allstate has mailed notice within the first 60
days that we don’t intend to continue the policy.
If we don’t intend to continue the policy beyond the
current policy period, we will mail you notice at least
30 days before the end of the policy period.
Part 1
Automobile Liability Insurance
Bodily Injury

Coverage AA
Property Damage
__
Coverage
BB
Allstate will pay for damages an insured person is
legally obligated to pay because of:
1. bodily injury sustained by any person, and
2. damage to, or destruction of, property.
Under these coverages, your policy protects an
insured person from liability for damages arising out
of the ownership, maintenance or use, loading or
unloading of an insured auto.
We will defend an insured person sued for damages
which are covered by this policy, even if the suit is
groundless or false. We will choose the counsel.
We may settle any claim or suit if we believe it is
proper. We will not defend an insured person sued
for damages which are not covered by this policy.
Additional Payments Allstate Will Make
When we defend an insured person under this part,
we will pay
1. up to $50 a day for loss of wages or salary if we
ask that person to attend hearings or trials to
defend against a bodily injury suit. We won’t
pay for loss of other income. We will pay other
reasonable expenses incurred at our request.
2. court costs for defense.
3. interest accruing on damages awarded. We will
pay this interest only until we have paid, offered,
or deposited in court the amount for which we
are liable under this policy. We will only pay
interest on damages not exceeding our limits of
liability.
4. premiums on appeal bonds and on bonds to
release attachments, but not in excess of our
limit of liability. We aren’t required to apply for
or furnish these bonds.
We will repay an insured person for
1. the cost of any bail bonds required due to an
accident or traffic law violation involving the use
of the insured auto. We won’t pay more than
$300 per bond. We aren’t required to apply for
or furnish these bonds.

BECAUSE OF BODILY INJURY SUSTAINED BY ONE
PERSON IN ANY SINGLE AUTO ACCIDENT,
INCLUDING DAMAGES SUSTAINED BY ANYONE
ELSE AS A RESULT OF THAT BODILY INJURY.

PERSONS IN ANY SINGLE AUTO ACCIDENT. FOR
PROPERTY DAMAGE, THE LIMIT APPLIES TO
DAMAGES ARISING FROM EACH OCCURRENCE.
THE LIABILITY LIMITS APPLY TO EACH INSURED
AUTO AS SHOWN ON THE POLICY DECLARATIONS.
THE INSURING OF MORE THAN ONE PERSON OR
AUTO UNDER THIS POLICY WILL NOT INCREASE
OUR LIABILITY LIMITS BEYOND THE AMOUNT
SHOWN FOR ANY ONE AUTO, EVEN THOUGH A
SEPARATE PREMIUM IS CHARGED FOR EACH
AUTO. THE LIMITS ALSO WON’T BE INCREASED IF
YOU HAVE OTHER AUTO INSURANCE POLICIES
THAT APPLY.
THERE WILL BE NO DUPLICATION OF PAYMENTS
MADE UNDER THE BODILY INJURY LIABILITY
COVERAGE, UNINSURED MOTORISTS COVERAGE
AND MEDICAL PAYMENTS COVERAGE OF THIS
POLICY.
AN AUTO AND ATTACHED TRAILER ARE
CONSIDERED ONE AUTO. ALSO, AN AUTO AND A
MOUNTED CAMPER UNIT, TOPPER, CAP OR
CANOPY ARE CONSIDERED ONE AUTO.
IF THERE IS OTHER INSURANCE
IF AN INSURED PERSON IS USING A SUBSTITUTE
PRIVATE PASSENGER AUTO OR NON-OWNED
AUTO, OUR LIABILITY INSURANCE WILL BE
EXCESS OVER OTHER COLLECTIBLE INSURANCE.
IF MORE THAN ONE POLICY APPLIES ON A
PRIMARY BASIS TO AN ACCIDENT INVOLVING
YOUR INSURED AUTO, WE WILL BEAR OUR
PROPORTIONATE SHARE WITH OTHER
COLLECTIBLE LIABILITY INSURANCE.
THIS INSURANCE WILL BE EXCESS OVER ANY
INSURANCE COVERING AN AUTOMOBILE
BUSINESS WHILE YOUR INSURED AUTO IS BEING

AUTOMOBILE BUSINESS. AN AUTOMOBILE

DELIVERING OR SELLING OF AUTOS.
Assistance And Cooperation
When we ask, an insured person must cooperate
with us in the investigation, settlement and defense

We can’t be obligated if an insured person voluntarily
takes any action or makes any payments other than
for covered expenses for bail bonds or first aid to
others.
Action Against Allstate
No insured person may sue us under this coverage
unless there is full compliance with all the policy
terms.
If liability has been determined by judgment after
trial, or by written agreement among the insured, the
other person, and us, then whoever obtains this
judgment or agreement against an insured person,
may sue us up to the limits of this policy. However,
no one has the right to join us in a suit to determine
legal responsibility.
The bankruptcy or insolvency of an insured person
or that person’s estate won’t relieve us of any
obligation.
What To Do In Case Of An Auto Accident Or
Claim
If an insured person has an auto accident, we must
be informed promptly of all details. If an insured
person is sued as the result of an auto accident, we
must be informed immediately.
Part 2

Allstate will pay to or on behalf of an insured person
all reasonable expenses actually incurred by an
insured person for necessary medical treatment,

auto accident. Ambulance, hospital, medical,
surgical, X-ray, dental, orthopedic and prosthetic
devices, professional nursing services,

LIMITS OF LIABILITY
THE LIMIT SHOWN ON THE POLICY DECLARATIONS
IS THE MAXIMUM WE WILL PAY FOR ALL
EXPENSES INCURRED BY OR FOR EACH INSURED
PERSON AS THE RESULT OF ANY ONE AUTO
ACCIDENT.
THE MEDICAL PAYMENTS LIMIT APPLIES TO EACH
INSURED AUTO AS STATED ON THE POLICY
DECLARATIONS. THE INSURING OF MORE THAN
ONE PERSON OR AUTO UNDER THIS POLICY WILL
NOT INCREASE OUR LIMIT BEYOND THE AMOUNT
SHOWN FOR ANY ONE AUTO, EVEN THOUGH A
SEPARATE PREMIUM IS CHARGED FOR EACH
AUTO. THE LIMIT ALSO WILL NOT BE INCREASED
IF YOU HAVE OTHER AUTO INSURANCE POLICIES
THAT APPLY.
If an insured person dies as the result of a covered
auto accident, we will pay the least of the following
as a funeral service expenses benefit:
1. $2,000; or
2. the Coverage CC limit of liability stated on the
Policy Declarations; or
3. the remaining portion of the Coverage CC limit
of liability not expended for other covered
medical expenses.
This funeral service expenses benefit does not
increase, and will not be paid in addition to, the limits
of liability stated on the Policy Declarations for
Coverage CC. This benefit is payable to the deceased
insured person’s spouse if a resident of the same
household at the time of the accident. However, if the
deceased is a minor, the benefit is payable to either
parent if that parent is a resident of the same
household at the time of the accident. In all other
cases, the benefit is payable to the deceased insured
person’s estate.

THERE WILL BE NO DUPLICATION OF PAYMENTS
MADE UNDER THE BODILY INJURY LIABILITY AND
AUTOMOBILE MEDICAL PAYMENTS COVERAGES
OF THIS POLICY. ALL PAYMENTS MADE TO OR ON
BEHALF OF ANY PERSON UNDER THIS COVERAGE
WILL BE CONSIDERED AS ADVANCE PAYMENTS TO
THAT PERSON. THE DAMAGES PAYABLE UNDER
THE BODILY INJURY LIABILITY COVERAGE OF THIS
POLICY WILL BE REDUCED BY THAT AMOUNT.
Unreasonable Or Unnecessary Medical
Expenses
If the insured person incurs medical expenses which
are unreasonable or unnecessary, we may refuse to
pay for those expenses and contest them.
Unreasonable medical expenses are fees for medical
services which are substantially higher than the usual
and customary charges for those services.
Unnecessary medical expenses are fees for medical
services which are not usually and customarily
performed for treatment of the injury, including fees
for an excessive number, amount, or duration of
medical services.
If the insured person is sued by a medical services
provider because we refuse to pay contested medical
expenses, we will pay all defense costs and any
resulting judgment against the insured person. We
will choose the counsel. The insured person must
cooperate with us in the defense of any claim or
lawsuit. If we ask the insured person to attend
hearings or trials, we will pay up to $50 per day for
loss of wages or salary. We will also pay other
reasonable expenses incurred at our request.
IF THERE IS OTHER INSURANCE
WHEN THIS COVERAGE APPLIES TO A SUBSTITUTE
AUTO OR NON-OWNED AUTO, ALLSTATE WILL PAY
ONLY AFTER ALL OTHER COLLECTIBLE AUTO
MEDICAL INSURANCE HAS BEEN EXHAUSTED.
WHEN THIS COVERAGE APPLIES TO A
REPLACEMENT AUTO OR ADDITIONAL AUTO, THIS
POLICY WILL NOT APPLY IF YOU HAVE OTHER
COLLECTIBLE AUTO MEDICAL INSURANCE.
Assistance And Cooperation
When we ask, an insured person must cooperate
with us in the investigation, settlement and defense
of any claim or lawsuit. If we ask, that person must
also help us obtain payment from anyone who may
be jointly responsible.
We can’t be obligated if an insured person voluntarily
takes any action or makes any payments other than
for covered expenses for first aid to others.
Action Against Allstate
No one may sue us under this coverage unless there
is full compliance with all the policy terms.
Proof Of Claim; Medical Reports
As soon as possible, any person making claim must
give us written proof of claim. It must include all
details we may need to determine the amounts
payable. We may also require any person making
claim to submit to questioning under oath and sign
the transcript.
The injured person may be required to take medical
examinations by physicians we choose, as often as
we reasonably require. We must be given
authorization to obtain medical reports and other
records pertinent to the claim.
Part 3
Automobile Death Indemnity
Insurance
Coverage CM
Allstate will pay the benefit shown on the Policy
Declarations if an insured person dies as a direct
result of bodily injury, sickness or disease caused
by an auto accident. The injury must be sustained
while the insured person is in, on, getting into or out
of, or when struck as a pedestrian by an auto, trailer
or semi-trailer.
Benefits will be paid only if:
1. death occurs within 90 days of the auto
accident; or
2. death occurs within 1 year of the auto accident
and the bodily injury has continuously prevented
the insured person from performing all duties
pertaining to that person’s occupation.

the ownership, maintenance or use of an uninsured
auto. We will not pay any punitive or exemplary
damages.
The right to benefits and the amount payable will be
decided by agreement between the insured person
and Allstate. If an agreement can’t be reached, the

additional premium.

Proof Of Claim; Medical Reports
As soon as possible, you or any other person making
claim must give us written proof of claim, including
all details reasonably required by us to determine the
amounts payable. We may also require any person
making claim to submit to questioning under oath
and sign the transcript.

If We Cannot Agree
If the insured person and we don’t agree on that
person’s right to receive damages on any claim
involving an amount of $3000 or less, the dispute will
be settled by arbitration.
If the insured person and we don’t agree on that
person’s right to receive damages on any claim
involving an amount over $3000, then upon the
mutual consent of the insured person and Allstate
the disagreement may be settled by arbitration. The
insured person and we, however, must mutually
agree to arbitrate the disagreements. If the insured
person and we do not agree to arbitrate, then the
disagreement will be resolved in a court of competent
jurisdiction.
Unless the insured person or we object, arbitration
will take place under the rules of the American
Arbitration Association.
If either party objects to the use of the rules of the
American Arbitration Association, the following
alternative method of arbitration will be used. The
insured person will select one arbitrator and we will
select another. The two arbitrators will select a third.
If they can’t agree on a third arbitrator within 30 days,
the judge of the court of record in the county of
jurisdiction where arbitration is pending will appoint
the third arbitrator. The written decision of any two
arbitrators will determine the issues. Local rules
governing evidence and procedure will apply. The
insured person will pay the arbitrator that person
selects and we will pay the one we select. The
expense of the third arbitrator and all other expenses
of arbitration will be shared equally. However,
attorney fees and fees paid to medical or other expert
witnesses are not considered arbitration expenses
and are to be paid by the party incurring them.
Regardless of the method of arbitration, either party
has a right to a trial on all issues in a court of
competent jurisdiction. Costs, including attorney
fees, are to be paid by the party incurring them.

What You Must Do If There Is A Loss
1. As soon as possible, any person making claim
must give us written proof of loss. It must
include all details reasonably required by us.
We have the right to inspect the damaged
property. We may require any person making
claim to file with us a sworn proof of loss. We
may also require that person to submit to
examinations under oath.
2. Protect the auto from further loss. We will pay
reasonable expenses to guard against further
loss. If you don’t protect the auto, further loss
is not covered.
3. Report all theft losses promptly to the police.
