Today, most cars are built using unibody (frame and body as one) construction.

The deductible amount that you will be responsible for is determined by your insurance policy. Insurance companies determine fault by your account of the accident when you make the claim and by reviewing the accident report filed with the police department. If you aren't sure about your deductible, you can call your agent and he/she explain your deductible. You will be responsible to pay your deductible when you pick up your vehicle.
