Minimum Limits Car Insurance

“Minimum limits car insurance” means the lowest amount of bodily injury and property damage liability coverage required by a state, for the protection of a third party caused by an insured’s negligence. While drivers should carry sufficient coverage to protect their assets, state minimum limits levels for bodily injury liability coverage ranges from $10,000 to $100,000 per person. Minimum property damage liability coverage ranges from $5,000 to $50,000 per occurrence.

Additional Car Insurance Information

Some states may require you to purchase additional insurance such as uninsured motorist coverage and personal injury protection (PIP). Depending on your vehicle, you may also want to consider purchasing collision and comprehensive car insurance coverage. This type of coverage protects your car from damages, theft, and unexpected events such as natural disasters. If you are caught driving without car insurance, some common penalties include:

• Suspension of your driver’s license and registration
• Fines and reinstatement fees
• A SR-22 Insurance Filing, which has a cost
• Impoundment of your vehicle
• Community service
• Jail time
