Car insurance rules in Maryland

Maryland requires drivers to carry at least $30,000 of bodily injury liability per person, $60,000 per accident and $15,000 of property damage liability, often written 30/60/15. It also requires personal injury protection ($2,500) and uninsured motorist coverage ($30,000 per person, $60,000 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.
