Is auto insurance required by law?
Nearly every state requires drivers to carry at least a minimum amount of liability insurance, though required minimum limits and a small number of state-specific exceptions vary. {{VERIFY: state-by-state minimum liability requirements}} — check your specific state's requirement rather than assuming a limit applies everywhere.
What's the difference between liability and full coverage?
Liability coverage pays for injuries or damage you cause to others; it doesn't pay to repair or replace your own vehicle. "Full coverage" isn't an official policy type — it typically refers to a policy that also adds collision and comprehensive coverage for your own car.
