Auto liability insurance is a type of car insurance that covers the policyholder in the event that they cause an accident and are found to be at fault. It provides financial protection for the policyholder in the event that they are sued by the other driver(s) involved in the accident. Liability coverage typically includes two types of coverage: bodily injury liability and property damage liability. Bodily injury liability covers the medical expenses of the other driver(s) and any passengers in their vehicle. In contrast, property damage liability covers the cost of repairing or replacing any property that was damaged in the accident, such as another vehicle or a fence.

What is the minimum liability required for car insurance in California?

California's Compulsory Financial Responsibility Law requires every driver and owner of a motor vehicle to be financially responsible for their actions. The statutory minimum limits of liability auto insurance in California are 15/30/5 which breaks down as follows: Bodily Injury for $15,000 for death or injury of any one person, any one accident and $30,000 for all persons in any one accident. Property Damage of $5,000 for any one accident. When your car is in an accident for which you are found legally liable, bodily injury (BI) liability covers your liability to others for injuries to them. Property damage (PD) liability covers your liability for damage to someone else's property. All California drivers and owners must have at least the statutory limits of minimum liability insurance or an approved alternative way to pay for injury or property damage they may cause. Penalties are very severe for non-compliance with this section of the vehicle code. for more knowledge, you can contact to a good insurance company like Raisinsurance.
