Cheapest full coverage insurance in NYC

Full coverage insurance combines the state’s minimum required liability coverage with collision and comprehensive protections. Liability car insurance covers injuries or property damage you cause to others in an accident, while collision coverage helps pay for repairs to your vehicle after an accident, regardless of fault. Comprehensive insurance protects against non-collision-related damages, such as those caused by weather, animal collisions or theft.
