You can get third-party insurance by contacting your insurer.
Third party insurance, which is also known as
liability insurance
, is a good way to keep your costs down yet make sure your car is still insured until you sell it.
Third party insurance will cover damages you cause to others in the event of an accident. It is the
minimum required insurance in many states
and is usually one of the cheapest policies to carry. As such, it’s definitely a suitable option in your case.
You can call your insurance provider, or you can shop smarter by using the
Jerry
app. Jerry will collect quotes for you, so you can compare rates in minutes without making a bunch of phone calls or filling out several forms. Jerry can also sign you up for your new policy and cancel any coverage you don’t need anymore.
