What Factors Determine Liability Insurance Rates?

As previously mentioned, liability insurance rates vary based on a long list of factors that an agent will consider when determining your monthly costs. Familiarize yourself with the list of things below that will have an impact on your liability insurance rate:

• Vehicle type
• Your location
• Your credit score
• Your driving record
• Your net worth
• Your age
• The type of policy structure you choose

How Much Does Liability Insurance Cost?

As a refresher, liability insurance covers both bodily injury and property damage costs incurred by the other party in an accident in which you are found at fault. Because of this two-pronged type of coverage, there are multiple ways to structure your liability insurance policy. You can opt for split limit coverage of those elements, or a single limit. Individual limits mean you’ll set separate limits for the following three things: bodily injury per person, total bodily injury in the accident, and property damage. A single limit is one total sum spread across the costs of the accident, agnostic of what category they fall into.

Minimum coverage limits are typically mandated by the state, but maximums are determined by your agent based on what you want and the aforementioned list of factors. For example, you’ll often see split limit liability insurance policies structured like 100/300/50, meaning maximum coverage of:

• $100,000 bodily injury per person
• $300,000 total bodily injury in accident
• $50,000 property damages

So, the answer to the question, “How much is liability insurance?” will depend on the coverage you select! To get the minimum coverage limits for CT, call the financing team at Land Rover Darien.
