Montana has a thriving auto insurance market which provides its citizens with competitive rates for auto insurance coverage. Unfortunately, many of Montana's motorists do not carry the required coverage mainly due to dangerous driving habits and low wages.

When you are involved in an auto accident and found to be responsible, it is extremely important to have the proper insurance coverage. Most people know and understand that driving without insurance is not an option. Not only is it dangerous, it is also illegal. In Montana you can be fined for driving without insurance in an amount anywhere from $250-$500. Your vehicle can be seized and you can be sentenced to jail.

If you are deemed responsible for an auto accident which results in injury to another person or persons, bodily injury liability coverage provides funds for accident-related medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. The State of Montana requires the following minimum coverage amounts to be purchased and maintained by all motorists:

• $25,000 total for bodily injury coverage, per person
• $50,000 total for bodily injury coverage, per accident
• $10,000 total for property damage, per accident

It's important to remember that these amounts are the minimum required by law. Most insurance experts recommend that you consider purchasing higher amounts of coverage to protect yourself financially. If you don't have the proper amount of coverage and are held responsible in an accident, your home, savings, future wages, and all other personal assets can be at risk in order to cover the costs of accident-related medical bills, property damage, and lawsuits.

Your auto insurance agent is a knowledgeable and trusted source for information regarding your state's minimum requirements. Your agent can also offer sound and practical advice when it comes to selecting other types of auto insurance coverage to protect yourself financially. These may include Collision Coverage and Comprehensive Coverage. Also, with estimates that approximately 20%-30% of Montana's motorists remain uninsured, you might want to consider adding Uninsured Motorist Coverage to your overall policy.

Tips to saving money on your insurance premiums

• Raise your deductible. Remember, the higher your deductible, the lower the cost.

• If you have a teenage driver in the family, ask about a good student discount.
• Maintain a clean driving record. This can add up to big savings when buying auto insurance.
• If you don't put a lot of miles on your car annually, ask about a low-mileage discount.
