Even though it has six different components, it can be broken up into two main parts: protecting yourself financially and providing for others. Let&#8217;s go into a bit more detail for each part of the coverage.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First-Party Benefits<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1228\" src=\"http:\/\/www.prontoinsurance.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Car-Insurance-Coverage-For-You-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.prontoinsurance.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Car-Insurance-Coverage-For-You-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.prontoinsurance.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Car-Insurance-Coverage-For-You-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.prontoinsurance.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Car-Insurance-Coverage-For-You.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prontoinsurance.com\/blog\/how-long-does-roadside-assistance-take\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This isn&#8217;t required<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, but the biggest advantage and the reason it&#8217;s included in full coverage is that you can use it for your own damages and medical expenses. An accident doesn&#8217;t have to ruin your finances! Whether you cause the accident or not, your car insurance kicks in and helps you pay for everything. You do not need to wait for another driver&#8217;s insurance company to pay out, meaning your car can get repaired and your medical bills will be covered quickly.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Liability Coverage<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is the only part of car insurance that your state requires you to carry. Liability insurance covers damages you are at fault for and cause to someone else and\/or their vehicle. Within liability, the two main types of insurance are bodily injury (BI) and property damage (PD) liability insurance. Bodily injury handles injuries you cause to the driver or passengers. Property damage is any damage you cause to another vehicle or structure- like a fence or mailbox.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There&#8217;s no more guesswork involved in getting a car insurance policy!
