How much insurance should you buy? New car owners should seriously consider full coverage to fully protect their investment. If you own an older vehicle, it&rsquo;s up to you to select the type of coverage you need. With the help of a Paragon Independent Insurance Agency agent, Plano, TX car owners can make wise insurance choices to protect their interests. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Minimum Auto Coverage<\/h3>\n<p>Every state has mandatory minimum requirements for auto insurance coverage. In Texas, the minimum coverage is $30,000 bodily injury liability per person with a $60,000 total per accident. If you cause an accident that injures two other people, your insurer will pay up to $30,000 worth of medical expenses for each, with a limit of $60,000 for the entire accident.<\/p>\n<p>If injuries exceed this limit, you could be sued for the remainder of the damages. Unless you have financial resources to cover these expenses, you would do well to select higher liability limits to protect your interests. Minimum liability coverage also doesn&rsquo;t cover damages to your vehicle, which means you&rsquo;ll have to pay for repairs out of pocket.<\/p>\n<h3>Full Coverage<\/h3>\n<p>With full coverage, you not only get liability protection but collision and comprehensive coverage as well. Collision coverage helps pay for repairs to your car if you crash it into another vehicle or object. Comprehensive insurance protects you against theft, vandalism and storm damage. If you own a new or fairly new car, you need extra coverage to protect your investment. Otherwise, you could wind up paying for vehicle repairs on your own.&nbsp; Full coverage may cost more initially but gives you greater returns on your insurance investment when you need it most.<\/p>\n<p>For help in selecting the right auto insurance package for your situation, contact Paragon Independent Insurance Agency, Plano, TX.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You&rsquo;ve purchased the car of your dreams and now need to choose insurance coverage to protect your investment.
