Important Georgia Car Insurance Information
Liability insurance covers damage or injury to others in accidents at which you are at fault. Georgia state law requires this type of coverage in the following minimum amounts:
- Bodily Injury: $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident
- Property Damage: $25,000
One other type of Georgia car insurance coverage which may be required by your lender if you decide to finance your car is physical damage. This pays for damage to your car, minus your deductible, in case of an accident, and includes both collision and comprehensive. Collision pays for damage incurred if you're involved in an accident with another car or fixed object, whereas comprehensive pays for damages due to other causes, such as hail, fire or theft. Talk to a knowledgeable Georgia car insurance agent to determine if you need physical damage coverage for your car.
One further note: Consider buying higher limits of Georgia liability insurance than those mandated by state law. State-mandated minimums may not be sufficient to cover the complete value of your automobile, provide adequate finances for medical bills incurred as the result of an accident, or protect you fully from lawsuits.
Your Obligations and Privileges
The state of Georgia places certain obligations in your hands. For example, you are obligated to read and understand your Georgia car insurance policy, and to ask your agent or insurance company to clarify anything you do not understand. It is your obligation to fill out your insurance application completely and accurately; to verify the licensing of any and all insurance companies and agents with whom you are considering doing business; and to obtain adequate minimum amounts of auto insurance. It is your duty, once you have purchased your Georgia car insurance policy, to ask your insurance company or agent for proof of coverage until you receive your policy; to keep track of your policy renewal date so you can make all payments on time and avoid the risk of nonrenewal; to pay any additional premium costs; and to report any changes affecting your policy to your company or agent as they occur.
Following an accident, it is your obligation to make contact with your Georgia car insurance company or agent right away. This ensures quick claims processing.
Your privileges as a Georgia car insurance consumer are also numerous. It is your right to choose your own insurance company and agent, and to obtain a fair insurance quote. You have the privilege of purchasing your policy with no preferential treatment or discrimination. When filing a claim, that claim must be investigated in a proper and timely manner, and payment for necessary repairs must be acquired from your insurance company or agent within 20 days of a settlement. You are entitled to receive copies of all insurance forms and applications within 60 days and, if not satisfied with your insurance provider, you may file a complaint regarding those issues with your insurance company.
Frequently Asked Questions
"How can I save money on my Georgia car insurance premium?"
There are several ways to save money on your auto insurance premium:
- Set deductibles as high as you can possibly afford. This can cause coverage rates to drop because it means potentially lower insurance payouts.
- Maintain a good driving record to lower your risk rate.
- Ask your Georgia car insurance agent about any available discounts that might lower your auto insurance rate.
- Comparison shop, checking out as many auto insurance rates as possible before making your final purchase.
"Why do insurance companies charge different rates in different geographical areas?"
Georgia car insurance rates are based on:
- Average losses for each defined area
- Average number of accidents in that area
- Average repair costs for each area
Therefore, rates can vary greatly according to these factors.

Yes, your Georgia car insurance company can cancel your policy for several reasons. These include:
- Failure to make your payment by the due date
