Good morning, {{firstName}}.

Allstate just opened a dedicated training lab in Dallas where adjusters inspect damaged EVs and ADAS-equipped vehicles. This is not random. Insurers are building internal expertise on systems that shops are still figuring out.

FIELD

1. Insurers training adjusters on ADAS damage assessment

Allstate Auto Lab puts claims specialists in a controlled environment to observe ADAS-equipped and EV damage firsthand. Twenty-two vehicles, four motorcycles, negative-pressure demo areas. The signal is clear: insurers are closing the knowledge gap between claims and repair reality. When adjusters understand ADAS scope better, they validate calibrations faster and push back less on line items.

One forward could save them three hours of denial fights this month.
