Does Car insurance also covers damages from flood?

Recently we experienced flash flood, I didn't have time to save my car, The problem is, I don't have a car insurance.

I am planning to avail one, Is there a particular type of car insurance that will cover Flood-damages?

  • Fully comp should as long as you're already insured before it floods.
  • Comprehensive insurance covers own vehicle damage and unless they show malicious intent on your behalf then would cover flood damage to a car

    Not any that will cover events that happen before the insurance was purchased, no.
