TYPES OF AUTO INSURANCE COVERAGE
LIABILITY INSURANCE
When you cause an accident, liability insurance either pays for expenses related to damages done to the other driver and any passengers (bodily injury liability) or damage to another party's property (property damage liability).
Liability insurance is the minimum amount of insurance that any person or business must carry in the state of Nevada. Liability Insurance protects the individual or business if they may be held legally liable for causing bodily injuries, property damage, or medical injuries to someone else because of their negligence or malpractice. Liability insurance policies cover both legal costs and any legal payouts for which the insured would be responsible if found legally liable up to the coverage limits. Intentional damage and contractual liability are typically not covered in these types of policies.
BODILY INJURY
Bodily Injury Liability coverage is for other driver’s and passengers’ injuries or death for which you are at fault.
PROPERTY DAMAGE
Property Damage Liability coverage for damages to someone else’s property for which you are at fault.
COMPREHENSIVE OR OTHER THAN COLLISION
Comprehensive Coverage pays for your vehicle in case of losses resulting from an event other than an accident, such as theft, hitting an animal, vandalism, or a tree branch falling on your vehicle. Your deductible amount will be subtracted from total amount paid.
COLLISION
Collision Coverage pays offers protection against crashes with a stationary object or another vehicle. It covers the cost of repairs or replacement to your car.
UNINSURED/UNDERINSURED MOTORIST
Uninsured/Under-insured (UI/UIM) Motorist Coverage protects against the risk of getting into an accident with a driver who doesn't have insurance, whose insurance is minimal, or who does a hit-and-run. It take care of your injuries, damages or death caused by an at-fault driver without insurance or without enough insurance to cover all costs. This coverage could also pay if the other parties’ cannot be identified because they left the accident scene. UM/UIM coverage is not mandated by law. It is an optional coverage that many Nevadans purchase to ensure that they and passengers in their vehicles have adequate protection if a covered vehicle is hit by an uninsured driver, a hit-and-run driver, or by a driver who does not have high enough insurance limits to pay for medical expenses.
Nevada law requires insurance companies to offer UM/UIM coverage in an amount that is no less than the statutory minimum liability amount. If you currently carry UM/UIM in an amount less than 25/50 ($25,000 of coverage per person and $50,000 of coverage per incident for bodily injury), your insurance company will have to increase the offered UM/UIM limits to 25/50 also. To do so, your insurance company or insurance agent will ask you to fill out a new “UM/UIM Selection/Rejection Form”.
ADDITIONAL INSURED
Policies often cover parties other than the named insured. You may need to add others to your policy when your spouse needs to be listed, other household members need coverage, or when someone else has co-ownership of the insured property or vehicle and uses it on a regular basis (find out whether your policy will cover a loss to your vehicle while it was driven by someone else). The policy would cover these individuals or organizations as additional insureds.
ADDITIONAL INTEREST
Unlike an additional insured, an additional interest is a third party who has an interest in protecting the property or vehicle insured but is not themselves insured under the policy. What this means is that they have a reason for wanting the property or vehicle to have insurance coverage in the event of a loss.

AGREED VALUE COVERAGE
Prior to issuing your policy, you and your agent come to an “agreed value” for your vehicle. In the event that there is a total loss to your vehicle, the “agreed value” is the amount you will receive without subtracting a deductible. A picture from each corner of the vehicle is required.
STATED VALUE COVERAGE

Parents Supervised Driving Guide
If you have accumulated between 3 and 11 points you may have 3 points removed by completing a traffic safety course only if the course is not part of a plea-bargain agreement with a court of law. If the course is required to complete a plea bargain with a court, no credit is given.
The school must be one of those approved by the DMV. You may attend traffic school only once in a 12-month period to remove points from your record.
Attending traffic safety school removes 3 demerit points. However, the record of the conviction remains part of your driving history.

DISTRACTED DRIVING FROM DMVNV.COM
WHAT IS DISTRACTED DRIVING?
With more portable technology now than ever, driver distractions have risen to unprecedented numbers. But cell phones aren’t the only problem.
Drivers can be distracted by eating and drinking, grooming, tuning the radio or even talking to passengers. Anything that takes a driver’s attention from the road is a potential hazard.
There are three main types of distraction:
• Visual — taking your eyes off the road
• Manual — taking your hands off the wheel
• Cognitive — taking your mind off driving
While all distractions can endanger drivers’ safety, texting is the most alarming because it involves all three types.
Other distracting activities include:
• Using a cell phone
• Eating and drinking
• Talking to passengers
• Grooming
• Reading, including maps
• Using a PDA or navigation system
• Watching a video
• Changing the radio station, CD, or Mp3 player
Young Drivers At Risk Young drivers are more at risk of distracted driving— especially those under 20 years of age.
Nevada has two important restrictions on drivers under 18.
• Drivers age 16 or 17 may not transport passengers under 18, except for immediate family members, for the first six months after receiving their full license. (NRS 483.2523)
• Drivers age 16 or 17 may not drive between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. unless they are traveling to or from a scheduled event such as work or school events. (NRS 484B.907)
