California Auto insurance Options
Any passenger auto insurance from SkyBlue will meet your legal obligation to prove your financial responsibility. It will also protect your wallet from costs due to repairs, hospital bills, and in the worst-case- funerals.
Liability auto insurance
Liability auto insurance is the portion of your auto insurance coverage that you are required by law to have. Your liability insurance pays other people for any damages or bills for which you are found liable. If you are liable for something, that means it is your fault, or that the responsibility for avoiding the accident would have fallen upon you. Having the capability to pay for your actions behind the wheel of your vehicle demonstrates financial responsibility.
There are other ways to demonstrate your financial responsibility in California, but liability auto insurance is usually the most affordable.
Collision auto insurance
Collision auto insurance protects you from paying for property damage to your vehicle in the event of an accident regardless of who is at fault. If you get in a car accident without collision insurance, chances are your medical bills will be paid but not the bills for the repair of your vehicle. If you like your car, or wouldn’t be able to afford a new one if you were involved in an accident, this coverage is for you.
Comprehensive insurance options
Comprehensive insurance options from SkyBlue will protect you against seemingly random sources of damage. Things like falling objects and wind damage are covered under various provisions of a comprehensive auto insurance policy.
bodily injury liability
The bodily injury liability portion of your auto insurance policy will pay for any medical bills, treatment costs, or funeral costs resulting from the operation of your vehicle. The other half of your liability insurance will be your property damage liability coverage. Property damage liability will pay for any damage you do to someone else’s vehicle or personal effects there-in.
California Commercial Auto Insurance
SkyBlue commercial auto insurance is available for most types of vehicles. If you use it to do business, we can get your commercial vehicle insurance coverage by SkyBlue on anything from a small pick-up truck to a tractor-trailer. SkyBlue is the third-largest commercial auto insurance provider in the country, and their commercial insurance policies will work for most small businesses.

California Liability Insurance
The information on this page pertains to the liability insurance laws of California. Every state has different auto insurance laws. Laws pertaining to auto insurance are usually called ‘financial responsibility laws.
These financial responsibility laws outline what each person must do to drive their vehicle legally in the state.
California offers statutory alternatives to liability insurance, meaning that you aren’t necessarily obligated to purchase an auto insurance policy per se. California law enforcement requires proof of financial responsibility to drive legally but accepts several different forms as proof including certificates of deposit with the proper authorities.
The most affordable option for proving financial responsibility for most kinds of vehicles is to buy a liability auto insurance policy. Liability auto insurance must meet at least 3 criteria in every state: Bodily injury (individual award), bodily injury group (any number of people/ injuries), and property damage liability.

Bodily Injury Liability Limits:
The bodily injury component of California liability insurance pays for medical bills or funeral costs resulting from your actions behind the wheel.
California Bodily Injury insurance must be capable of providing at least $15,000 towards the bodily injuries of a single injured party or at least $30,000 towards the total medical & funeral costs for any number of people.
This coverage is inflexible and only applies to other parties. This means that under no circumstances will your liability auto insurance pay for your injuries in California if you caused the accident that injured you.
Other parties injured by your driving who are awarded any auto insurance benefits under the Bodily Injury Protection portion of your insurance must apply all of those funds awarded towards reasonable and necessary treatment for their injuries, or funeral arrangements for the deceased.

Property Damage Liability Limit:
California has a low property damage liability limit of $5,000 per accident.
This can be a problem. What it means to consumers is that they don’t NEED to pay as much for their liability insurance in California because a lower liability limit means a lower monthly premium. But the bad part comes in when you get in a car accident in California with a 1.2 million dollar Ferrari on the Pacific coast highway. The driver is legally allowed to sue you for the difference in property damage between your coverage limit ($5,000) and the actual damages to the car (about a million dollars).
Despite the very low liability insurance limits of California, most competent insurance agents will recommend a liability auto insurance policy that will award injured parties up to $300,000 per accident for costs due to bodily injury, and up to $100,000 towards property damage or vehicle loss. This type of policy will help ensure that even if you are involved in a serious accident, you and your family will be free from legal consequences.
