California Auto Insurance Requirements
California requires at least $30,000 of bodily injury liability per person, $60,000 per accident, and $15,000 of property damage liability (30/60/15).
California is an at-fault state. The driver who causes a crash is responsible for the damage, usually through their liability insurance.
State minimums are a legal floor, not a recommendation. One serious accident can cost far more than these limits, so most drivers are better protected with higher liability limits and uninsured motorist coverage.
Requirements as of 2026. Rules change, so confirm current requirements with your agent.
