One of them is to maintain the state-mandated auto insurance on your vehicle. It is your responsibility to know what those mandates are before taking a vehicle out onto the road. At&nbsp;Oliver Insurance in&nbsp;Canby, OR our&nbsp;experienced team has been serving the&nbsp;area since 1972. Our goal is to make sure you are in compliance with the law and have the perfect coverage for your needs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In Oregon, it is not legal to drive a vehicle without auto insurance. You can&#8217;t register a vehicle without it. Every driver must cover their vehicle with at least $25,000 in liability for each person in a crash and $50,000 for the total accident. Additionally, there must be $20,000 for property damage. Drivers must also have $15,000 PIP (personal injury protection) and insured motorist at the same minimum and maximum as the bodily injury.<\/p>\n<p>The state of Oregon takes not having the required auto insurance very seriously. Depending on the circumstances that bring your lack of&nbsp;insurance to the attention of the authorities, you could be fined anywhere from the minimum of $130 to more than $5000.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If you live in Oregon and have an auto loan or a lease, you will have additional requirements. You must protect the vehicle&nbsp;you&#8217;re driving in the event it gets damaged. This requires&nbsp;you to carry collision and comprehensive coverage. Even if you don&#8217;t have a loan or lease, if your vehicle is worth more than a couple of thousand dollars, it is probably a good idea to maintain comprehensive and collision coverage. Living without a vehicle would be a hardship for most people and having the ready money to replace or repair your vehicle may also be difficult.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Contact&nbsp;Oliver Insurance in&nbsp;Canby, OR&nbsp;for your auto insurance needs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Owning a vehicle and having a driver&#8217;s license comes with some responsibilities.
