Nevada Auto Insurance Liability Coverages

Mandatory Nevada Liability Coverages

 

Bodily Injury
If the policyholder or another driver covered by the Nevada policy is found to be at fault in an accident resulting in injuries or fatalities, the following is covered under bodily injury coverage:

  • Medical expenses
  • Lost wages
  • Pain and suffering
  • Legal defense if the drivers listed on the policy are involved in a lawsuit resulting from a car accident

Bodily injury coverage pays for damages caused to a third party.

How much protection does this coverage provide?
The dual coverage limits you select in your Nevada auto insurance quote refer to the maximum amounts that will be paid per person, per incident, respectively.

Property Damage
If you or another covered driver is found to be at fault in an accident, the following is covered under property damage coverage:

  • Damage to another person's property (e.g., fence, car, or home)
  • Legal costs associated with a damage incident

How much protection does this coverage provide?
The coverage limits you set in your Nevada auto insurance quote refers to the maximum amounts that will be paid per accident.


Optional Nevada Liability Coverages

 

Medical Payments
Medical payments is an optional coverage in Nevada that pays for medical and dental treatment, hospitalization, professional nursing services, prostheses, and funeral expenses if a covered driver and/or accompanying passengers are injured while in an insured vehicle, regardless of who is at fault in the accident.

Medical payments may also cover policyholders and their family members when they are injured while riding in someone else's car or if a car hits them while on foot or bicycling.

If you and your regular passengers already have health insurance that covers similar expenses, medical payments coverage may be unnecessary. Check your Nevada health insurance policy for details.

The auto insurance coverage limit refers to the maximum amount that will be paid per person, per accident.

Uninsured Motorist Bodily Injury
If you choose to have uninsured motorist bodily injury on your Nevada policy and you want it to apply to multiple cars, you must select the same limit for each car. Also, the limits you choose must be less than, or equal to, your bodily injury limits.

If the covered individuals are injured in an accident caused by a driver who has no insurance, compensatory damages that a policyholder is entitled to receive, will be covered.

Uninsured motorist bodily injury coverage covers the following expenses:

  • Medical
  • Lost wages
  • Other general damages
  • Injuries sustained in hit-and-run accidents

Uninsured Motorist Bodily Injury provides coverage to the policyholder, authorized policy members, and passengers.

How much protection does this coverage provide?
The dual coverage limits you see in your Nevada auto insurance quote refer to the maximum amount that will be paid per person, per incident, respectively.

If the other driver is uninsured, this coverage can generally pay up to the limit you purchase. If the limits you purchase are lower than an accident's costs, you’ll be responsible for paying the amount over your limits, unless you’re covered by health insurance.

Uninsured Motorist Property Damage
If you decide to carry this coverage on your Nevada auto insurance policy, you must also purchase uninsured motorist bodily injury coverage. To obtain Uninsured Motorist Property Damage on multiple vehicles, you must purchase the same limits for each vehicle.

Uninsured motorist property damage coverage protects your car if it’s damaged in an accident caused by a driver who has no insurance or insufficient coverage

How much protection does this coverage provide?
If the other driver is uninsured, this coverage pays up to the limit you select. If the other driver involved in an accident is underinsured, this coverage pays the difference between the cost of your damages and the other driver’s property damage coverage limit.

When you purchase this coverage, you need to select a deductible.
