Texas Property Damage Coverage

Property damage definition, but is not limited to, damage to buildings or other vehicles or their contents, and damage to road signs and other stationary objects. The minimum limits in Texas are $15,000 per accident.
Personal Injury Protection and Uninsured Motorist Protection

Assistance from TAIPA if You Have Been Denied Coverage
If two or more insurance companies have denied you coverage, you are eligible to apply for insurance through TAIPA (Texas Auto Insurance Plan Association). This will allow you to get coverage for the minimum amount required by law. Because of the risk factors, this coverage is often expensive, but if you maintain a clean record for three years, your assigned TAIPA insurance company must offer you a lower rate. For more information on TAIPA and the Insurance Bill of Rights, visit the Texas Department of Insurance Web site at www.tdi.state.tx.us.
