Quick answers to the issues people run into most often when choosing or changing auto insurance.
They meet legal requirements, but a serious accident can exceed them quickly. Many drivers choose higher limits so one claim doesn’t threaten savings, wages, or other assets. Use your financial picture—not just the law—as your guide.
Compare what you pay for those coverages each year plus your deductible against the car’s market value. If a payout would be low and you could replace the vehicle without that help, scaling back may be reasonable.
Yes—getting quotes is normal. Just be sure any new policy starts before the old one ends. A lapse in coverage can be more expensive than staying put temporarily.
In many cases, coverage follows the insured vehicle first, then may extend to you. The exact rules depend on policy language and state law, so review your documents or ask a licensed professional before assuming you're covered.
Not all claims are treated equally. At-fault accidents and frequent claims matter more than small, occasional comprehensive losses. Some companies offer accident forgiveness—ask how your situation would be handled.
