Common Auto Insurance Questions  

What is auto insurance?

Auto insurance is a promise of financial assistance. By buying a policy, a driver agrees to pay the insurer, who in turn agrees to provide payment and other support to the driver in the event of unexpected, unavoidable vehicle accidents or other problems. With it, drivers will be reassured that they can recover from such challenges with minimal personal financial losses.  

How does auto insurance work?  

Any challenge or damage involving your vehicle could get very expensive, and it’s only natural to worry whether you will be able to afford such costs. Auto insurance will guarantee that you can. You can file a claim against this policy for accident costs and other losses for which you are responsible. The policy then pays a certain amount of money to aid you in your recovery costs.  

Quality auto insurance will minimize your personal financial losses for such problematic losses, and you’ll be able to recover from these issues without costing yourself an arm and a leg.
