Uninsured motorist coverage is one of the most important aspects of an automobile insurance policy. Uninsured motorist coverage protects you in the event that you are involved in an accident with an uninsured driver. The coverage will extend to cover you and your passengers for bodily injury as well as your vehicle against damage if the accident was the fault of the uninsured driver.

Some states go so far as to require uninsured motorist coverage. They include:

Connecticut
Washington D.C.
Illinois
Kansas
Maine
Massachusetts
Minnesota
Missouri
New Jersey
New York
North Dakota
Oregon
Rhode Island
South Carolina
South Dakota
Vermont
Virginia
West Virginia
Wisconsin

Other states may limit the amount of uninsured motorist coverage or limit the application of the coverage. Please see your state's Department of Insurance or contact your agent/insurance carrier to review the specific rules and regulations for your particular state.

Fortunately, obtaining uninsured motorist coverage is a quick and painless process. All major insurance carriers will offer the coverage as an additional coverage to the standard automobile insurance contract.

The first thing to do is to contact your carrier, or another carrier, to get a quote for this important additional coverage. Obtaining a quote is free of charge. Most carriers will require that they write your entire automobile policy and will not offer the uninsured motorist as a standalone coverage. In other words, if you wish to get uninsured motorist coverage through a carrier other than the one your policy is currently through, you will most likely have to transfer your entire policy. There are three ways to get a quote.

In person - Visit your local agency. Contact your agent or another local agent and let them know you would like to request a quote for uninsured motorist coverage. They will set an appointment where you can sit down to review the coverage options, including limits available and the cost of that coverage.
