Like any other rules, auto insurance in Georgia sets a minimum amount of auto insurance. The liability policy is required by the states and the coverage will only apply to the person whose name is indicated on it. As compared with other states in the US, Georgia has the highest least amount of liability coverage required to drivers.
The minimum liability auto insurance coverage in Georgia are:
- $25,000 Bodily Injury Liability limits of per injured person up to a total of
- $50,000 per accident, and
- $25,000 Property Damage Liability coverage
Although auto insurance in Georgia does not require collision and comprehensive coverage, drivers will need this coverage to pay the cost of repairing his/her vehicle. Other than paying the cost of vehicle repair of the victim, the insured should also think of his/her needs after the accident. Collision and comprehensive coverage can ease the financial burden of shelling out money for this. In case you got your car damaged because an animal immediately crossed the road, this coverage will still pay for the vehicle repair.
Worst case scenario that can happen to a driver is to get hit by a vehicle that is not insured. If collision and comprehensive insurance will pay the vehicle cost, uninsured/underinsured will take care of your medical expenses. You can also use this when the at-fault driver does not have sufficient auto insurance coverage to pay the total amount of costs.
