Texas Car Insurance
Auto and Truck Insurance aren't just good to have to protect you financially in the case of an accident - they are a requirement in the State of Texas.
All of the Insurance companies we represent provide a wide range of auto and truck insurance products at a fair price. Your price gets even better if you qualify for any of our available discounts. When applying for auto or truck insurance, you're usually asked whether you want collision and/or comprehensive coverage, how high you want your deductible to be, what liability limits you want, and whether you want any types of optional coverage.
We can help you understand what these terms mean and how much coverage is right for you.
- Standard and Preferred auto or truck Insurance
- Classic / High Valued autos or trucks

Coverage options:
Collision and comprehensive (other than collision) coverages
Collision and Comprehensive (other than collision) coverages pay for damage to your vehicle. While purchasing these coverage options is not mandatory, it is always best to protect your interests.
- Collision coverage insures you against damage to your vehicle caused during an accident.
- Comprehensive coverage insures you against all other physical damage to your vehicle caused by such events as fire, theft, flood, and vandalism.
If your vehicle is damaged, the Insurance company pays only for the damage in excess of the deductible you selected. The higher the deductible, the lower the premium.
Liability coverage
Liability coverage pays for injuries you cause to other people and damage you cause to other people's property when you are at fault in an accident.
Medical Payments coverage
Medical Payments coverage pays medical expenses (up to a specified dollar limit) for you and the passengers of your car who are injured in an accident, no matter who is at fault. If you and your passengers have health Insurance, you may not need this coverage.
Personal Injury Protection
Some states require Personal Injury Protection, which is also known as No-Fault coverage. This coverage pays for things like medical and rehabilitative expenses, replacement services, and funeral expenses. It also pays for loss of income if you are injured in an accident and are unable to work, up to a specific limit.
Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage
This coverage pays if you are injured by a person who is completely uninsured or doesn't have enough liability Insurance to cover your injuries. It also covers you if you are in an accident with a hit-and-run driver or you do not know who the driver was.
Optional coverage
Optional or special coverage includes extras such as towing, rental reimbursement, and roadside assistance. None of these coverages are required.
How much do I need?
Choosing the appropriate level of auto Insurance coverage depends on a number of factors, including assets you must protect (liability coverage), value of your vehicle (collision and comprehensive), the amount of money you can afford to pay out-of-pocket (deductibles), and your tolerance for risk.
