Arkansas car insurance coverage your policy must have
Liability coverage
There are two types of liability coverage available:
- Property damage safeguards your assets if you are found legally responsible for a covered accident. It covers certain damage you may cause to the property or vehicle of another party.
- Bodily injury safeguards your assets if you’re found legally responsible for a covered accident, including certain expenses associated with bodily harm sustained by the other parties.
The minimum amount of Arkansas auto insurance coverage is $25,000/$50,000/$25,000. In the event of a covered accident, your limits for bodily injury are $25,000 per person, with a total maximum of $50,000 per incident. It also covers up to $25,000 for damage to another person’s property.
Liability coverage also provides for your legal defense if a lawsuit is brought against you as a result of a covered accident.
