Auto Insurance Law

Auto insurance requirements vary from state to state. Drivers should stay up to date with current auto insurance requirements to avoid fines, fees, and repercussions. In most cases, your auto insurance company will let its drivers know of any changes to the law or requirements.

Auto insurance helps keep you covered in the event of an accident where bodily injury or property damage may occur. Depending on the type of insurance you obtain, your insurance may cover the partial cost or all costs associated with an accident.

Common Auto Insurance

Liability insurance: If you cause an accident, liability insurance helps cover the other driver’s expenses. If you cause an accident, bodily injury liability insurance covers the other driver’s medical expenses. Property damage liability insurance helps cover the expenses for damage to another driver’s vehicle. Liability insurance does not cover damage to your own car.

Collision Insurance: Collision insurance protects your car in the event of an accident involving another vehicle or object.

Comprehensive Insurance: Comprehensive insurance protects your car if your car is damaged in an event that does not involve an accident with another vehicle. For instance, comprehensive insurance protects your car if it is damaged by fire, natural disaster, vandalism, or falling objects. Not all states require their drivers to have comprehensive insurance.

Talk to a representative from your insurance company to ensure you have the right coverage for your needs. Most insurance companies will keep their drivers informed of any changes to their policy or state law requirements.
