How is it that so many people aren’t aware that they only have liability coverage? I often see posts where individuals are surprised to learn that they lack comprehensive and collision coverage and can’t afford to repair their vehicles. How does this oversight happen? It seems to be a widespread issue.
How do so many not know they only have liability coverage?
It’s surprising, isn’t it? There are a few reasons this might happen more often than we think. First, many people may not fully understand the different types of insurance coverage available to them. When purchasing a policy, they might focus mainly on the premium cost rather than the specifics of what’s covered.
Additionally, some people may have opted for liability coverage due to budget constraints, thinking that they would be fine without comprehensive and collision coverage. They might not realize that this means they would have to cover all repair costs out of pocket if anything happens to their vehicle.
Another factor could be the complexity of insurance policies. Details can be overwhelming, and it’s easy to overlook what coverage is included or what might be necessary for a particular situation.
Overall, it’s a good reminder for everyone to periodically review their insurance policies, ask questions, and make sure they understand their coverage to avoid any surprises in the future!
