Uninsured Motorist Accidents Are More Common Than You Might Think
According to the Texas Department of Insurance, each day on Texas roads, one out of five drivers does not have auto insurance. In other words, if you are injured in an accident, there is a 20-percent chance that the other driver will not have the insurance needed to cover your vehicle damage and medical expenses.
In addition to uninsured drivers, many other drivers are underinsured in the event of a serious accident. Even when people purchase the minimum liability coverage required by law, often the minimum coverage is not enough to cover the costs of a serious injury.
For these reasons, many Texans purchase personal injury protection (PIP) or underinsured/uninsured motorist insurance in addition to their own liability coverage. This kind of uninsured motorist coverage is sometimes called UM insurance.
Even With UM Insurance, Claims Can Get Complicated
To be sure you receive the full and fair compensation you are owed, talk to a lawyer with experience in handling underinsured motorist claims.
