Maryland Car Insurance (MD)

The state motto of Maryland is:: "Manly deeds, womanly words."

Maryland car insurance is something you have to be careful with. Maryland follows the Tort system- meaning that someone has to be proven as guilty before you or the insurance company pays- and, if found guilty, they must pay for all damages done. There may be detail variations regarding the tort system. To better understand Maryland car insurance, check with your state insurance regulator for regulations.

When it comes to Maryland car insurance, the state law for Maryland requires a minimum coverage of $20,000 for Bodily Injury Liability per injured person. It also requires up to a maximum of $40,000 per accident. The minimum state requirement for Property Damage Liability coverage is $10,000. This type of coverage is generally referred to as 20/40/10 coverage.

What happens if you don't get car insurance in Maryland? Law enforcement officers will ask you for proof of insurance at the time of traffic stops or accidents. Insurance companies notify the department of motor vehicles of all policy cancellations, non-renewals, and new policies.

If this is the case with you, the law enforcement officer will know it and it could cause you huge fines or worse. Failure to maintain proper insurance could lead to the suspension of your vehicle registration and/or driver license. This can be expensive to the vehicle owner. Be sure that you follow the Maryland car insurance laws!

Although Maryland car insurance does not require a minimum Personal Injury Protection (PIP), there are advantages to having this type of coverage. For example, if you ever have an accident, PIP will pay for your and your passengers' medical expenses.

Another type of optional coverage you can consider getting is Uninsured/ Underinsured Motorist Coverage. This coverage will help pay for any injury resulting from an accident caused by an uninsured driver. You can choose to purchase this added protection, although state law for Maryland car insurance does not require it.

Maryland car insurance is really not that complicated. While many residents in The Old Line State will get their insurance in the traditional way, make sure you compare Maryland car insurance rates from multiple car insurance companies to get the best rate. You can call each car insurance company directly or you can shop for auto insurance online.
