 Cary Car Insurance Requirements

Cary car insurance helps you pay for damage or injuries that you cause if you are at fault for an accident. But if you only purchase the minimum coverage amount required by the state, you may be under-protected if you are involved in a serious crash. Consider what a Cary car insurance policy can do for you before you decide how much coverage you need.

• Bodily Injury Liability: $30,000 per person, $60,000 per accident required
• Property Damage Liability: $25,000 required
• Personal Injury Protection (PIP): Not required

Who Pays If the Accident Wasn’t My Fault?

The driver who caused the accident, of course. But approximately 9.1% of drivers in North Carolina are uninsured. If an uninsured driver gets in an accident, the other driver has to cover all of the expenses, even if the uninsured driver is at fault. That's why you need “uninsured motorist coverage.” It covers your vehicle damage and medical expenses if you are hit by an uninsured driver. Without this specific coverage, your own insurance wouldn’t pay either. Not all states require drivers to purchase uninsured motorist coverage. But North Carolina does require you to have uninsured motorist coverage.

What Affects the Cost of Cary Car Insurance?

Monthly auto insurance premiums vary greatly from person to person. Your payment will be based on:

• Your age
• Where you live
• Your driving history
• The kind of car you drive
• The number of cars and drivers in your household

The type of car you drive plays a huge role in what you pay for car insurance. Would your car be expensive to repair or replace? If yes, expect your car insurance to cost more, too. If you want to keep your rates low, consider driving a modest car (e.g., a used mini-van) that is rarely targeted by thieves and is inexpensive to repair.
