Car insurance rules in North Carolina

North Carolina requires drivers to carry at least $50,000 of bodily injury liability per person, $100,000 per accident and $50,000 of property damage liability, often written 50/100/50. It also requires underinsured motorist coverage.

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