As an update for Alabama's minimum insurance coverage, all drivers are now required to have at least:

• $20,000 for bodily injury to one person
• $40,000 for all persons involved
• $10,000 for property damage

Many people choose to opt for higher coverage for a good reason--it provides them with a greater sense of security in the event of an emergency occurring. This may be a good choice for you as well, especially if you're looking to ensure one and may not necessarily be the safest behind the wheel.
