My friend got a DUI not too long ago. This is the state of Florida, and she has Allstate. I understand that her getting a DUI is now public records because she spent the night in jail. Because the fact that it's public records now, is she required to inform her Allstate insurance company about her DUI? Also, what will happen either way whether she reports it to insurance company or not? Will they remove her from her insurance or jack up the rates? It is her FIRST DUI and other than that she has a good driving record. Thanks.
I don't think she's had the court hearing so idk if she has been charged or not. what's a DWI versus a DUI?

    Interesting, how this "friend" is not asking the question. In any event, has she been convicted of a DUI? If so, Allstate will find out, since it is public record. Rates will go up, and it is up to Allstate to cancel the insurance.

    If she had to spend the night in jail, this is not a DUI, this is a DWI.

    insurance will find out whether she tells them or not and they can either cancel her insurance or jack it way up their choice
