I’ve heard a lot about how important it is to have third-party insurance for your car but I’m not fully sure what that is or how I can purchase it. How can I get third-party insurance on any car?

What you’ve heard is correct, it is very important to have third-party insurance for your vehicle. Third-party insurance is often referred to as
liability coverage
and is included in most states’
minimum car insurance requirements
.
Third-party insurance, or liability insurance, is designed to protect you from the claims of others (a third party). For example, if you get in an accident and the person you hit files a claim against you, you are protected under your third-party insurance or liability coverage. If you want to check if you have liability coverage, or what the limits are, you can take a look at your policy’s
declaration page
.
If you are not currently insured or looking for a new car insurance company, you should download the
