Arizona motorists are one step closer to having to buy more auto insurance than many of them already purchase.
The Senate on Monday gave preliminary approval to boosting the amount of liability coverage required to drive in Arizona to $25,000 for injuries caused to any one person and $50,000 for all injuries in a single accident. Current law mandates only $15,000 and $30,000 coverage, respectively.
SB1111 also sets the minimum coverage for property damage – generally repairs to someone else’s vehicle – at $25,000, up from $10,000, the current amount.
