If you are held 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 Washington 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

Most people know and understand that driving without insurance is not an option. Not only is it dangerous, it is also illegal. However, being underinsured can be almost as devastating as having no insurance. Without the proper coverage amounts, your home, savings, future income, all other personal assets and property can be at risk in order to cover the costs of accident-related medical bills, property damage and lawsuits.

It's important to remember when drawing up your personal policy that most states only require minimum coverage amounts. Most insurance experts agree that you should base your deductibles and types of coverage on your personal needs and circumstances. When speaking with your agent, be sure to take into consideration all aspects of your situation- family, income, and personal assets- when putting together your auto insurance policy.

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 Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage, Collision Coverage, and Comprehensive Coverage.

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 teen driver discounts.
• Drive carefully. A clean driving record can add up to big savings when buying insurance.
• Improve your credit score. Many insurance companies use your credit score to determine the amount of your premium. Check your credit score before applying for insurance to make sure it is accurate and up-to-date.
• Reduce coverage on an older vehicle, especially if it's paid for.
• If you're purchasing a new vehicle, get an insurance quote before you buy. Insurance prices can vary dramatically depending on the make and model of the car you purchase.
