What are my auto policy options?
Liability
When an insured is legally responsible, liability coverage pays for accidental bodily injury and property damages to others. Bodily injury damages include but are not limited to medical expense, pain and suffering, and lost wages. Property damage includes damaged property and may include loss of use of the property. Liability coverage also pays legal costs.
Personal Injury Protection
Pays medical expenses for covered persons, regardless of fault, for treatment due to an auto accident. It may also pay for rehabilitation, lost earnings, replacement of services and funeral expenses. Beware of cutting this coverage on your auto policy. Some internet sites default your coverage to state minimum which may not be in your best interest.
