Minnesota 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 Minnesota auto insurance coverage is $30,000/$60,000/$10,000. In the event of a covered accident, your limits for bodily injury are $30,000 per person, with a total maximum of $60,000 per incident. It also covers up to $10,000 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.

Uninsured and underinsured motorist

• Protects you in the event of an accident where the other party is at-fault and either doesn’t carry insurance or is underinsured. Bodily injury Helps pay for damages due to bodily injury that you and other passengers of your vehicle are legally entitled to from another driver who is not insured or is underinsured.

Personal injury protection (PIP) − Reimburses a portion of wage loss, medical expenses and essential services incurred as a result of an accident to eligible injured parties (i.e. passengers or pedestrians).
