Car insurance rules in Texas

Texas requires drivers to carry at least $30,000 of bodily injury liability per person, $60,000 per accident and $25,000 of property damage liability, often written 30/60/25.

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