What is Auto Insurance?
Auto insurance provides financial protection against physical damage and/or bodily injury resulting from traffic collisions and against liability that could also arise therefrom.
Auto insurance may also offers financial protection against theft of the vehicle and damage to the vehicle, sustained from things other than traffic collisions.
Auto Insurance Coverages
There are basically six different types of coverages. Some may be required by law. Others are optional. They are:
- Bodily injury liability - for injuries the policyholder causes to someone else.
- Medical payments or Personal Injury Protection (PIP) - for treatment of injuries to the driver and passengers of the policyholder’s car.
- Property damage liability - for damage the policyholder causes to someone else’s property.
- Collision - for damage to the policyholder’s car from a collision.
- Comprehensive - for damage to the policyholder’s car not involving a collision with another car (including damage from fire, explosions, earthquakes, floods, and riots), and theft.
- Uninsured motorists coverage - for costs resulting from an accident involving a hit-and-run driver or a driver who does not have insurance.

Frequently Asked Questions About Auto Insurance in Texas
What auto insurance is required in Texas?
Texas law requires all drivers to carry minimum liability coverage of 30/60/25: $30,000 for bodily injury per person, $60,000 for bodily injury per accident, and $25,000 for property damage. However, these state minimums may not be enough to fully protect you in a serious accident. TAP Insurance can help you find affordable options for higher coverage limits that give you better peace of mind on North Texas roads.
How can I lower my auto insurance rates in Texas?
There are several ways to save on car insurance: bundle your auto and home policies, maintain a clean driving record, take a defensive driving course, raise your deductible, and ask about available discounts like multi-vehicle, good student, or low-mileage discounts. Working with an independent agent like TAP Insurance is one of the best ways to save because we compare rates from multiple carriers to find the most competitive price for your situation.
Do I need comprehensive and collision coverage?
While Texas only requires liability insurance, comprehensive and collision coverage protect your own vehicle. Comprehensive covers damage from hail, theft, flooding, and other non-collision events, which is especially important in Wise County where severe weather is common. Collision covers damage from accidents regardless of fault. If you have a car loan or lease, your lender will typically require both. Even if your car is paid off, these coverages can save you thousands if the unexpected happens.
What is the difference between an independent agent and a captive agent?
A captive agent, like those at State Farm or Farmers, can only offer policies from their one company. An independent agent like TAP Insurance works with multiple insurance carriers, which means we can shop the market and compare rates on your behalf. This gives you more choices, better pricing, and an agent who truly works for you rather than for the insurance company.
