The Hagerty Drivers Club membership includes emergency roadside assistance for all your classic and collector cars. Car hauling trailer coverage is included in Hagerty Drivers Club. Additionally, anyone driving the covered car may call for service - Hagerty Drivers Club covers the car, we do not restrict our plan to a specific driver.*
No. The roadside program only applies to services dispatched by Hagerty Drivers Club. You must call the Emergency Roadside Service number located on your membership card and/or key fob to have service dispatched. Any services retained directly by you are not included.*
Hagerty Drivers Club provides assistance for changing the wheel and tire with your inflated spare. If you don't have a spare, our certified dispatch agents will advise you of nearby companies who sell spare tires and will dispatch a tow to get you and your vehicle to the service station. Please Note: Hagerty Drivers Club will not cover the cost of a new spare tire or the labor associated with tire balancing, rotation, or alignment*
Benefits can be enjoyed as soon as membership has been purchased and a username and login credentials have been set up.

If you have specific questions about usage, especially if you own a newer vehicle (generally 1990 and newer), we're happy to discuss them with you.
Guaranteed Value insurance policies guarantee that, in the event of a covered total loss, you will receive the vehicle’s full insured value, which we will have already agreed on. Please see the policy features main page for more details.
Some access-controlled roadways, such as the Garden State Parkway in New Jersey, are state- or municipality-controlled. Only specific contracted providers are allowed to provide service on these roadways. In some cases, those providers refuse to work with networks like Hagerty Drivers Club, and you may be instructed to call the police or local administrator for service. You would then need to submit an invoice for reimbursement up to your benefit allowance.*
We typically do not require appraisals. If we need further documentation supporting a vehicle's value, we will contact you during the underwriting process.
It’s up to your discretion who you allow to drive your car. Just keep in mind, the same acceptable usage that applies to you applies to everyone who drives it. While Hagerty supports youth involvement in the hobby, our program guidelines requires that every driver must be fully licensed, with no state imposed restrictions (such as a suspension). Please call a licensed sales agent to discuss your specific situation.
A claim could impact your rates or deductibles; please do not let this stop you from contacting us.
