Damage To The Car After It Hit A Kangaroo

A Kangaroo accident can cause severe damage to your vehicle. The sizes of kangaroos can vary a lot. For example, a small female can weigh as little as 55 pounds, while a fully-grown male can weigh more than 400 pounds. The damage can be worse when a giant animal does it.

Most accidents with kangaroos happen when the driver hits the animal head-on. The engine, transmission, body, frame, and windscreen can all be damaged depending on how heavy the Kangaroo is.

If You Hit A Kangaroo, Does Your Insurance Cover The Damage?

Most of the time, your insurance company won’t help you if you hit the animal and damage your car. Either of these policies won’t cover damage caused by a Kangaroo.

Only if you have full coverage will your insurance pay for damage to your car caused by animals. A comprehensive policy covers all damage from vandalism, falling objects, and hitting an animal.

Don’t Think That Collision Coverage Is Also Full Coverage

Collision insurance covers damage to your vehicle caused by colliding with another vehicle, a fixed object such as a tree or wall, or a single-car rollover, but not animal damage.

No state requires comprehensive coverage, which means that if you only have the minimum coverage, your insurance company will only help pay to fix your car if it gets damaged.

Can You Fix Your Car If You Hit A Kangaroo With It?

Whether or not a car that a kangaroo hit can be fixed depends on how bad the accident was. If you hit a small kangaroo while driving slowly down the road, your car’s body may only have minor damage that can be fixed for less than $1,000.

But your car might be lost if you crashed at high speed or with a big, fully grown male Kangaroo. If that’s the case, fixing the car will be challenging. Instead, your insurance company can buy it from you and pay you the car’s value before the accident, less the amount you have to pay.

You can also keep a car that has been wrecked. Ask your insurance company if you can repurchase the vehicle and get the title. You will still get the check, but it will be less than your deductible and the amount the company expects to make from selling your car.

Value Of a Car After Hitting a Kangaroo

The value of your car is likely to drop if you hit a kangaroo. This is especially true if there is much damage to the frame, the engine, or the body. So even if you can fix your car so it can be driven again, it will lose much value because it is less safe after an accident.

If a Kangaroo hits your car and destroys it, it is now a scrap car that is only worth what can be recycled from it. In that case, the price of scrap metal in your area will determine how much your vehicle is worth.

The scrap value of your car depends on many things, like its size, make, model, year, condition, where it is, and more. The best way to find out how much it’s worth it to ask different junk car buyers near you for quotes.

What Are My Options If I Hit A Kangaroo And My Car Is Wrecked?

Even if an animal hits your car and damages it, you can still sell it for cash. There are a lot of businesses and people who buy wrecked, totaled, or otherwise damaged cars. So you don’t have to give the vehicle to your insurance company if you don’t want to.

After hitting a Kangaroo, you can choose from the following ways to sell your car:

• Getting a private buyer for the car
• Selling the car to a scrap yard or junkyard
• Trading in the vehicle at a car lot
• Taking the car apart
• The vehicle is being sold online

The best choice for you depends on how well your car works, what kind it is, and how much you know about cars.
