What amount of liability insurance is required for injuries or death to all people in an accident?

The required amount of liability insurance for injuries or death to all people involved in an accident is established to ensure that there is sufficient coverage to assist in the financial obligations that can arise from such incidents. In Washington State, the minimum liability coverage for bodily injury per accident is $50,000. This amount is designed to cover medical expenses and other damages for individuals who suffer injuries or lose their lives as a result of an accident caused by the insured.

Having this amount of coverage is important as it reflects the state's aim to protect both drivers and injured parties by ensuring that there is a basic financial safety net available to address the potentially high costs associated with medical treatments, lost wages, and other related expenses that might accrue from an accident. Hence, the amount of $50,000 is appropriately set as the minimum required liability insurance to be carried by drivers for bodily injury coverage in the event of an accident.
