Automobile Accident Insurance
Automobile accidents can produce interesting questions as to insurance coverage and may provide opportunities for several different forms of coverage to exist:
- Accident liability insurance This is the liability coverage that protects the at fault driver.
- Medpay or personal injury protection This form of coverage may protect any occupant of the vehicle regardless of fault.
- Uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage This coverage may provide additional coverage to the injured party if the at fault driver either did not have liability insurance or had inadequate coverage.
- Automobile collision coverage This is a coverage that will provide indemnity to you for damage to your vehicle.
