Hit and runs are very unique. It is when a driver is involved in an accident and then drives off before the police arrived and before any insurance information is exchanged. If there is a hit and run, you need to know how insurance is handled so that you can ensure sufficient coverage is in place on your policy in Alabama.

There are various types of coverage that you can add to your policy that can help to provide financial protection in the event of a hit and run. Without the police being able to inspect the other car, it may be difficult to establish who was at fault. This means you want to make sure that property damage and personal injuries are taken care of, no matter what.

Collision coverage is important to have – and it may even be required by the lien holder of your car loan or lease. It’s going to take care of repairs to your vehicle, regardless of whether you get a car or a car hit you.

Uninsured motorist coverage is also available. You can purchase both bodily injury and property damage coverage and there are various limits. The more coverage you have, the less likely chance there is of you having to pay out-of-pocket. Bodily injury could cover medical bills and lost wages for you as well as passengers while property damage can help to repair your car as well as any other property that may have been damaged.

Finally, you will want to look at personal injury protection. This provides no-fault coverage for you and your passengers in regards to medical bills. Child care costs may also be included, along with lost wages.
