Auto Insurance

What coverages do I need?
In case you're involved in an accident, auto insurance provides financial protection for you and your family. It pays for the damage and injuries caused by the accident and for repairing or replacing your vehicle if it is damaged or stolen.

State Requirements
In most states, you are required to carry auto liability insurance (or post a bond) and provide proof of insurance before you can license your vehicle or renew your driver's license. If you are caught driving without insurance, you may have to pay a large fine and have your driver's license suspended.

Most states require drivers to carry minimum liability coverage. In many cases, the required minimum coverage may not be enough to pay for all the damages that result from an accident and the driver will have to pay the additional expenses out of pocket.

Types of Auto Insurance Coverages
There are many different types of auto insurance coverages for you to choose from. Your local Farmers agent can work with you to decide what coverage combinations provide the best protection at a price that fits your budget.
Fault or No-Fault - Depends on state law.
Collision - Pays damages to your own vehicle.
Comprehensive - Pays for losses from fire, theft, storm, etc.
Deductible - The amount of a covered loss you agree to pay.
Bodily Injury - Pays for injury to others when you are at fault.
Property Damage - Pays for property damage when you are at fault.
Medical Payments- Pays for your own or your passenger's medical expenses.
Personal Injury Protection - In no-fault states, this covers a broad assortment of medical expenses.
