PROTECTING YOU ON THE ROAD!
Aside from your home, your vehicle is often your biggest asset. Auto insurance protects against potentially crippling financial loss and the inconvenience of being without transportation for a period of time.
It’s important to remember, not all car insurance is created equal. Some auto insurance policies only meet the bare minimum legal requirements. In most states this means your auto insurance will only cover the damage you cause to other cars in collisions. However, the car insurance in some ‘no fault’ states will also cover your own car or truck. Additionally, the law usually states that auto insurance policies must cover some medical bills that result from a car crash. If your car insurance coverage doesn’t include that, then you’d be out of pocket. Other auto insurance policies go further and protect your car or truck if it’s stolen, damaged, destroyed by fire, or damaged in a car accident that doesn’t involve other vehicles. You can also get policies that protect your vehicle if it’s damaged by an uninsured driver.

WHAT IS AUTO INSURANCE?
A car insurance policy is a measure of financial protection in case you cause an accident with your vehicle, or it is stolen, vandalized or damaged by a natural disaster. This means that instead of paying out-of-pocket for auto accidents, you pay an annual premium to an insurance company and the company then pays all or most of the costs associated with an auto accident or other vehicle damage.
DO I NEED AUTO INSURANCE?
When it comes to auto insurance, every state is different. Drivers should always have car insurance, even if they are not required to by law. In states like Virginia and New Hampshire where it's not mandatory, every driver is still legally obligated to carry at least minimum coverage on their vehicle with the company of reputable insurers.
