Car insurance requirements in Elgin 

In Illinois, drivers must carry minimum liability insurance. Liability coverage can help pay for damages you cause to someone else’s vehicle or injuries to a third party after an accident. As of March 2025, Illinois minimum liability requirements include:

• $25,000 for bodily injury per person 
• $50,000 for bodily injury per accident 

While having the state minimum coverage requirements helps you comply with Illinois law, you may have to pay out of pocket for other accident scenarios like when you damage your own vehicle. Illinois Vehicle works with insurers that have additional coverages that may benefit you. Some of these coverages include:
