Minimum Car Insurance Requirements in Arizona
Arizona does not mandate that its drivers purchase insurance. However, if you choose not to, you do have to be ready to put up a bond totaling $40,000 to prove you can pay for damages that might result from a traffic accident.
If you do choose to purchase insurance, the minimum liability insurance requirements for private passenger vehicles in Arizona[1] are:
$25,000 per person for bodily injury
$50,000 per accident for bodily injury
As a major part of your liability insurance, bodily injury coverage covers medical bills for people other than the policyholder who are injured during an accident. Arizona is an at-fault state, meaning the driver who is responsible for the collision is also responsible for paying for any resulting expenses, either through their car insurance provider or out of pocket.
$15,000 per accident for property damage
If it’s determined that an insured driver is at fault for an accident, this coverage pays for repairs to the property of the other involved parties. Additionally, property damage coverage can cover legal costs if the insured driver is involved in a lawsuit following the accident.
Yuma Car Insurance Rates by Driver Age
As indicated by the data below, younger ages correlate to higher car insurance rates in Yuma. Drivers age 19 and down pay an average of $306 in car insurance premiums monthly. With age and experience, driving risks decrease and premiums shrink. Drivers in their 60s and 70s pay $116 and $142, respectively. Though teen drivers will make it into older age brackets eventually, the best way to pay lower rates now is through discounts and good driving behavior.

Yuma Car Insurance Rates by Driving and Accident History
Even after you establish an insurance policy, a good driving record can keep insurance rates low. Though underwriters look at your driving history at the beginning of your policy, they’ll look at it again each time your policy comes up for renewal. Accidents or other kinds of risky driving behavior are reasons why your insurance rates might climb. Even if you’ve kept a clean record all of your life, a failure-to-stop violation can make your rates skyrocket. Your rates could rise 400 percent—from an average of $185 per month to $765 per month for the same coverage.
