Many drivers carry only the state-minimum liability coverage without realizing how little it actually protects. If you cause an accident with $100,000 in damages but only carry $25,000 in liability, you're personally responsible for the $75,000 difference — and that could mean wage garnishment or asset seizure.
Common coverage gaps include insufficient liability limits, no uninsured motorist protection, missing comprehensive coverage on a financed vehicle, and umbrella policy gaps for homeowners. Identifying these gaps before an incident happens is the best way to protect your finances.
