 22. Under what circumstance do I not need certain types of auto insurance?

While most drivers today are generally insured for collision and theft, this coverage may not be necessary for every vehicle.

Liability insurance, as mentioned earlier, is essential and in many states required. But if you drive a clunker—an older car that isn't worth much money—you may be able to do without collision insurance. If you have an accident, repair costs could easily be higher than the value of your vehicle, thus "totaling" it. This means your insurer will pay you the total book value of your vehicle, and that could be far less than the cost of your vehicle's repair. So, collision insurance may not cover your loss adequately.

Since it depends on special circumstances, ask your Trusted Choice® independent insurance agent for guidance.
