What Auto Insurance in Texas Can Cover

A personal auto policy is made up of several coverages. Here are the main ones to review.

Liability Coverage

Liability coverage can help pay for injuries and property damage you cause to others in a covered accident, including legal defense costs. It is the core of every auto policy.

Collision Coverage

Collision coverage can help pay to repair or replace your car after a crash with another vehicle or object, minus your deductible. Lenders usually require it on financed cars.

Comprehensive Coverage

Comprehensive coverage can help with theft, vandalism, fire, falling objects, hail, and animal strikes. It is often called "other than collision" coverage.

Uninsured and Underinsured Motorist Coverage

This coverage can help pay for your injuries when the at-fault driver has no insurance or not enough to cover the loss.

Texas Auto Insurance Requirements

The Texas Department of Insurance sets minimum coverage rules for drivers in the state.

Minimum Liability Limits

Texas law requires at least $30,000 per person and $60,000 per accident for injuries, plus $25,000 for property damage. This is often written as 30/60/25.

PIP and Uninsured Motorist Coverage

All Texas auto policies include personal injury protection, and insurers must offer uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage. You must reject either one in writing if you do not want it.

Drivers Without a Car

If you do not own a car but drive borrowed or rented vehicles, a non-owner policy may fit better. See non-owner car insurance in Texas.

Questions to Ask About Auto Insurance in Texas

Use these questions when you compare quotes or review your current policy:

  • Do my liability limits protect my assets? State minimums may not be enough if you own a home or have savings.
  • What deductibles make sense for me? A higher deductible can lower your premium but raises your cost after a claim.
  • Is every driver in my household listed? Teen drivers and new household members should be reviewed.
  • Do I still need collision on an older car? Compare the car's value with the cost of the coverage.
  • Should I add an umbrella policy? An umbrella can add liability limits above your auto and home insurance in Texas.

Auto Insurance in Texas: Local Factors to Know

The Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) licenses the insurers and agents that sell auto insurance in Texas. If you have a question about a claim or a company, TDI's consumer services team can help, and you can confirm any agent's license on the Texas Department of Insurance website.

Local risks that shape auto insurance in Texas

Texas has some of the most active weather in the country, with hailstorms across North Texas, hurricanes and tropical storms on the Gulf Coast, flash flooding in Houston and the Hill Country, and hard freezes like the February 2021 winter storm. Texas requires at least 30/60/25 liability coverage, and personal injury protection (PIP) is included in every policy unless you reject it in writing.

Texas tips before you buy auto insurance

  • Compare your liability limits with what you own, not just the state minimum.
  • Ask whether hail, glass or deer claims carry a separate deductible.
  • Check that your agent holds a current Texas license with TDI.
