Nevada Auto Insurance Requirements

As a “Tort” state, Nevada drivers are financially responsible for any property damage or personal injuries that they may cause during an automobile accident. For this reason, you are required by law to carry liability insurance.

The state minimum’s are 15/30/10 (see the chart below) for liability insurance, but it is strongly recommended that you purchase higher levels of coverage to protect yourself and your family, in addition to any assets you may have.
