Car insurance rules in Connecticut

Connecticut requires drivers to carry at least $25,000 of bodily injury liability per person, $50,000 per accident and $25,000 of property damage liability, often written 25/50/25. It also requires uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage ($25,000 per person, $50,000 per accident).

These are legal minimums, not a recommendation: a serious crash can cost far more, and anything above your limits is yours to pay.
