Imagine you're stopped at a red light and an uninsured driver rear-ends you. Without UM/UIM coverage, you could be stuck paying your own medical bills and car repairs β€” even though you did nothing wrong. In Texas, with 14% uninsured drivers, this scenario is far too common.

What UM/UIM Covers

Is UM/UIM Required in Texas?

Texas uses an at-fault system, meaning the at-fault driver pays for damages β€” but if they have no insurance, UM/UIM is your backup. While requirements vary, adding UM/UIM to your Texas policy is one of the smartest insurance decisions you can make.
