The Spirit Of Travel

Dear fellow travellers,

It always is wise to have a closer look at any insurance coverage before travelling.

Please take Elizabeth’s suggestions to heart.

Americans love to travel, there’s no doubt about it. Whether we’re headed to one of the coasts for some fun in the sun at a beach, or to the mountains to hit the ski slopes, we’re travelling all over the country every season of the year, which makes having adequate car insurance even more important.

Today, all 50 states require some form of financial responsibility when it comes to automobiles. Some states require actual car insurance from a licensed car insurance company, and some merely require us to provide proof of financial responsibility should we find ourselves in a motor vehicle-related accident one day.

Even though it’s illegal to skip out on your state’s car insurance or financial responsibility requirements, the fact is that many people to skip out. This is why it’s so important for you to protect yourself with adequate car insurance or financial responsibility, especially if you frequently travel. When we travel, we aren’t always familiar with the interstate highways and smaller town roads we drive to get to our destinations. Other drivers may be just as unfamiliar with the roads as you are. This unfamiliarity can lead to motor vehicle-related accidents.

If you’re involved in a motor vehicle-related accident with a driver who doesn’t have any car insurance, much less adequate car insurance, you’ll be able to rest assured that you’ll at least be covered. You can do this by not only meeting your state’s car insurance or financial responsibility requirements, but by exceeding them. Consider going beyond just purchasing liability insurance and purchasing full coverage insurance. You should also look into underinsured motor insurance coverage - this will protect you in the event that you’re involved in an accident with a driver who has no insurance, or not enough insurance, to cover physical and property damages.

Whether you plan to travel across the country or down the street, make sure you’re protected with adequate car insurance!

Thank you very much Elizabeth.

Till next time and take care.

Cheers

Barbara
