Every licensed driver in the State of California is required to have auto insurance. In the event of an auto accident, the insurance should cover all medical costs and vehicle repairs. With the high amount of motorcycle-related injuries suffered each year, insurance is vitally important. Although the injured party may have insurance, the guilty party might not. This will have a major effect on the injured party.
The minimum insurance requirements in California are as follows:
The minimum insurance requirements are as follows:
- $15,000 for death or injury of 1 individual per accident.
- $30,000 for death or injury of 2 or more individuals per accident.
- $5,000 for damages to property per accident
Insurance will greatly benefit you if you purchase both uninsured motorist and underinsured motorist coverage (U.M. and U.I.M.). The term "underinsured" means that if an individual purchased only the minimum insurance required and you are involved in a motorcycle accident with that person you can only recover the minimum amount or $15,000.00. If you purchased Uninsured Motorist coverage your insurance company will also pay for your damages. If you have been involved in a motorcycle accident with an uninsured driver you can therefore also collect a cash award from your uninsured motorist insurance coverage.
It is therefore of vital importance for you to purchase uninsured motorist insurance at all times. This is the only way to keep you and your family safe in the event of an accident. Uninsured Motorists insurance will reimburse you for injuries and damages caused by negligent and unsafe drivers. Never operate a vehicle without insurance!
