Collision coverage: Covers vehicle damage in the event of an accident, no matter who is at fault.
Comprehensive Coverage: Includes coverage for non-collision events such as hitting an animal, theft, vandalism, and natural disasters.
After an accident, Personal Injury Protection (PIP) or Medical Payments Coverage helps pay for your passengers' and your own medical bills.
State Requirements: The minimum coverage requirements for auto insurance are set by each state and typically involve liability insurance. States can differ greatly in these requirements from one another.

Factors Affecting Premiums: A driver's age, driving history, type of vehicle, location, and selected coverage limits are some of the factors that can affect their insurance premium.
