FAQ's for Drivers in Florence, AL

driver’s frequently asked question in Florence

What Is the Minimum Liability Coverage Requirement in Florence, AL?

Every state requires drivers to have a minimum amount of liability coverage. Alabama drivers are required to carry liability insurance to pay for damages and injuries inflicted on someone else in an auto accident.

  • $25,000; Bodily injury coverage per person; Maximum payment for serious or permanent injury or death to a single person
  • $50,000; Bodily injury coverage per accident; Maximum payment for serious or permanent injury or death to multiple people
  • $25,000; Property damage per accident; Maximum payment for all damaged property in an accident caused by you

Legally mandated minimum limits of liability in Alabama are $25,000 of bodily injury per person, $50,000 bodily injury per accident to cover the injury or death of two or more people, and $25,000 per accident property damage liability. In addition, unless you opt out in writing, you’re required to carry a minimum of $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident of uninsured motorist coverage, as well.

Some people are content to just maintain coverage at the minimum required by Alabama law. This doesn’t cover them for a variety of potential expenses, though. That’s why other drivers prefer the peace of mind and financial protections of additional optional coverages. Also, when banks extend auto financing, they typically insist the borrower carry comprehensive coverage due to the risk of damage to the vehicle before the loan’s paid off.

What Is the Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) limit in Florence, AL?

It’s illegal to drive in Alabama with the following BAC percentages: 

  • .08%+ at 21 years old or older
  • .04%+ for commercial vehicle drivers
  • .02%+ at under 21 years old

In late 2011, the State of Alabama decided to much more aggressively punish DUI offenders who register a BAC of 0.15% or greater. These people face minimum penalties of at least double what they would be if the level were below this reading. See the question after next for more information about DUI penalties.

Does Alabama allow the use of digital insurance cards?

It does! Ask your car insurance company to provide you with a digital proof-of-coverage image, and you’re permitted to show it on your cell phone or other mobile devices. No more frantically digging around in the glove compartment for proof of insurance!
