While these are not mandated in San Antonio, TX, your lender may require you to have them if you lease or finance your car. In addition, you can choose to further protect yourself with other optional coverages from The Hartford, including:
 
  • Comprehensive car insurance: Also known as “other than collision” coverage, this can help pay for damage caused to your car by hail, theft, fire or hitting an animal.
  • Collision coverage: This coverage will help you pay for damage from things like a collision with another vehicle or an accident that involves only your car. It will also help cover someone crashing into your parked car or an accident in a car you’ve rented.
  • Emergency Roadside Assistance: If you break down and your car needs to be towed, this coverage can help. We can also bring you gas if your tank is empty or send someone out to help with a repair, like a battery replacement.
  • Increased Rental Car Reimbursement coverage: If you’re in an accident and your car is no longer drivable, this coverage will help pay for a rental car.
  • Medical Payments coverage: If you’re in an accident, this coverage can help pay medical expenses for you and your passengers. It can help pay for things like doctor’s visits, ambulance fees and dental procedures.
  • Underinsured/Uninsured Motorist coverage: These coverages can help pay for expenses if you’re in an accident with someone who has no, or not enough, car insurance.
  • Uninsured Motorist Property Damage (UMPD) coverage: This coverage can help cover costs to repair your vehicle or damages to your home or other property. The state of Texas requires drivers who have this coverage to carry a $250 deductible. If you have UMPD coverage and you’re involved in an accident or hit and run with an uninsured driver, you may choose either collision or UMPD coverage, if applicable, to help pay for damages. In some cases, having the option to choose between the two coverages will equate to a lower deductible owed if your collision deductible is greater than $250.
