All Amarillo drivers must have car insurance to comply with Texas law.[10] The Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) requires drivers to have liability limits of at least:
$30,000 per person for bodily injury liability
$60,000 per accident for bodily injury liability
$25,000 for property damage liability
Despite insurance verification requirements through TexasSure, about 20% of drivers still hit the road without insurance.[11] You can protect yourself and your finances by including uninsured motorist (UM) coverage or underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage in your car insurance policy. UM coverage will pay if someone damages your vehicle but doesn’t have insurance.[12] On the other hand, underinsured motorist coverage pays for damages to your car if you’re hit by a driver who doesn’t have enough insurance.[13]
Most insurance experts recommend buying coverage that exceeds the Texas minimum requirements if your needs call for it, given the state’s minimum liability limits of 30/60/25. Your lender may also require you to have comprehensive and collision insurance to protect its financial investment in your vehicle until you pay it off.
Gap insurance may also be worth the extra cost if you make a small down payment or your vehicle’s value is less than what you owe, which pays the difference if you total your car.
