Full coverage insurance protects your car from damage, whether it occurs in a crash or in another scenario. A full coverage policy includes collision and comprehensive coverage.

  • Collision coverage: Collision coverage pays for damage to your car after a collision — no matter who was responsible for the accident.
  • Comprehensive coverage: Also known as "other-than-collision coverage," comprehensive coverage protects your car from noncollision damage, such as damage from a wild animal, theft or fire.

If staying on your parents' policy isn't an option, be sure to ask your insurer about common auto insurance discounts like student-away-from-home or good student discounts.

Minimum car insurance requirements in Texas

In Texas, drivers are required to have a certain amount of bodily injury liability and property damage liability coverage, which is sometimes referred to as 30/60/25.

While this amount is enough to be legally insured, drivers should consider increasing their coverage beyond the minimum limits, as extra liability protection is not expensive. We also recommend considering collision and comprehensive insurance, which protect your car against damage.

Drivers in Texas are also allowed to buy personal injury protection (PIP). If you don't have good health insurance to cover injuries from a car accident, you should strongly consider PIP for your policy.
