The Dangers Of Too Much Or Too Little Auto
Insurance

• We all want to try and save money on our car
  insurance premiums, but we should always have a
  clear idea in our minds of why we have it in the
  first place, and just how important it is. For
  instance, if you have an accident while
  travelling in your car, and especially if you
  caused it, car insurance can help protect you
  from having to pay out thousands in damages and
  repairs, the cost of which can be crippling for
  those without protection.
• Cant you just have minimum coverage?
• Well yes, you can of course have the minimum
  coverage required by the law in your state, but
  while you might be all legal and above board, the
  policy may fall way short of the coverage that
  you need if you have a serious accident in your
  car.

• In fact, if youre coverage is inadequate in the
  event of an accident, you can personally be held
  liable for any damages that youve caused. So,
  the long and short of it is that it makes
  absolutely no sense to have insufficient
  coverage, whether its legal or not.
• How can you judge how much coverage youll need?
• Think about the overall value of any assets that
  you have if youre a young, unmarried person
  with no real assets to speak of, such as
  property, savings or investments, then you may
  get away with minimum coverage for your vehicle.
  However, if you do have assets that amount to at
  least a few thousand dollars, then youll need
  greater coverage.

• Lawsuits after an accident are common and can end
  up costing you a significant amount of money, and
  if you have substantial assets, youve got more
  to protect and so will need a level of coverage
  that is much higher.
• Is it possible to have too much coverage?
• Yes, it is possible. Aside from the fact that you
  might be paying over the odds for a policy with
  an excessive amount of coverage, a larger policy
  can make you a prime target for frivolous
  lawsuits. When the complainant initiates a suit,
  the attorney will look at the amount of coverage
  that you have, and the larger that coverage, the
  more the complainant may be likely to squeeze
  from you.

  coverage you should get when insuring your car,

  auto insurance and who can give you an unbiased
  rundown of your choices. For more detailed advice
  and guidance, contact your local auto insurance
