State requirements for car insurance in Oklahoma
What are the minimum requirements for Oklahoma auto insurance?
To legally operate a vehicle in Oklahoma, you must carry Liability insurance and Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist protection. If you’re found driving without these, you can face fines, a suspended driver’s license, suspension of your vehicle registration, and 30 days in jail.
Liability coverage
Liability coverage helps pay for property damage or bodily injuries that occur from a car accident you are responsible for. It does not cover harm to you or your family members—that’s what Medical Payments or Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverages are for. Liability does not cover your vehicle, but Collision and Comprehensive coverages do.
Minimum required Liability coverage in Oklahoma:
$25,000 Bodily Injury (per person)
$50,000 Bodily Injury (per accident – multiple people injured)
$25,000 Property Damage (per accident)
You can always select higher limits.
Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage (UM/UIM)
Uninsured and Underinsured Motorist coverage will help pay your expenses when you're in a car accident with a driver who doesn’t have car insurance, or whose car insurance coverage won't adequately cover your costs. Insurance companies in Oklahoma are required to offer this coverage as part of your policy. However, you can reject this coverage in writing and still be in compliance with car insurance laws.
Minimum required Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage in Oklahoma:
$25,000 Bodily Injury (per person)
$50,000 Bodily Injury (per accident – multiple people injured)
You can always opt for higher limits if you want more coverage.
What is the average cost of car insurance in Oklahoma?
