Auto Insurance Laws – What You Should Know
Posted by Mark Alison on July 19, 2009
Laws can be confusing sometimes. How much coverage is you required to have? What is the minimum amount? Do you have to have liability? What if you drive to other states? The questions are endless and it can be confusing at times.
Your agent is the best source of information. They have access to all the state laws for insurance and will be able to lead you in the right way. It’s their job to know these things and they get paid for your safety. Before you call them be sure to write down your inquiries so they can answer them promptly and you don’t have to call them back.
Basic rule is that each state has a minimum requirement for the auto insurance coverage you need to have for certain situations. The three types of coverage is injury to another, injury to all people, and damage to property.
If you are going to travel out of state, check out what auto insurance coverage you will need. Call the rep of your insurance company and verify the coverage you need. Be sure if you are traveling through multiple states, find the strictest one and change your coverage to that one for the time being.
Some states have laws covering vehicles that you don’t need insurance for. In Washington and Oregon, motorcycles, scooters, and mopeds do not need insurance to drive them.
All states require you to carry auto insurance proof on you at all times. When pulled over if you don’t provide proof, you will get a ticket and have to contest it in court. Simply bring the proof to the judge and you should get acquitted. If not, it’s a hefty fine.
It is your responsibility to be familiar with and in abidance of the laws of your state. Driving, along with having a drivers license, is considered a privilege, not a right.
