Buying a new car can be exciting and scary. I love the new car smell and all the new features that come with it.
However, the scary part for me is driving it off the lot. No, it’s not the depreciation. It’s the fact that my new baby (investment) is now out on the open road. Suddenly, I’m worried about stone chips, road debris, and other drivers.
While buying auto insurance isn't fun, imagine life without it. We would be responsible for paying for damages out of our own pockets for things like:
- Medical bills;
- Legal fees;
- Property repair; and
- Actual repairs to our car and others.
