Do I Need Car Insurance?
Each state determines the minimum auto insurance requirements for its residents. Massachusetts drivers need the following coverages to remain in compliance with state laws:
- Liability insurance, often distinguished by bodily injury and property damage coverages, may help pay for a driver’s legal liability for accident-related third-party property damage and bodily injuries.
- Personal injury protection (PIP) may help cover lost wages, medical expenses, and other accident-related costs for the insured driver and their passengers.
- Uninsured motorist coverage may help cover the insured driver’s accident-related medical costs and property damage if the other driver doesn’t have auto liability insurance.
These required policies pay only up to the policy’s limits, so your agent may recommend you purchase more than the minimum required amount, depending on your circumstances.
Your agent can help you get the auto insurance coverage you need to comply with state laws and your lienholder’s requirements. If you lease or finance a vehicle, the lienholder typically requires full coverage insurance, which may include comprehensive, collision and guaranteed asset protection (GAP) insurance.
What Does Auto Insurance Cover?
Auto insurance can provide coverage for a variety of risks and perils. Your agent may offer the following policies in addition to the core coverages required by Massachusetts law:
- Comprehensive and collision insurance may help cover repair or replacement costs for the insured vehicle after a covered incident, such as an accident involving another car or object, a natural disaster, fire, theft or vandalism.
- GAP insurance may help pay off your loan or lease if the insured vehicle is a total loss after a covered accident or incident.
- Underinsured motorist coverage may help cover the other driver’s liability for your accident-related injuries and property damage if their auto liability policy doesn’t offer enough coverage to pay those costs.
Several endorsements can help tailor your auto insurance to meet your needs, including the following:
