RE: Why I was surprised to learn Nebraska requires uninsured motorist coverage

RE: What to do when the other driver has no insurance

RE: Just saved a chunk of cash on car insurance after defensive driving course

RE: Finally figured out how car insurance works in no-fault states
Yeah, good point about the PIP limits - I just got my first policy and almost went with the bare minimum until a friend shared their ER bill from a minor fender-bender... yikes. Ended up bumping mine up a bit too, better...
RE: HOW DO YOU DECIDE ON THE RIGHT DEDUCTIBLE FOR YOUR INSURANCE?

RE: bumped someone's car lightly, no visible damage - should I report?
