In Missouri, basic insurance means liability coverage only. You must have 25/50/10. That is $25,000 for one individual in an accident for medical bills and injuries with $50,000 for the complete accident. $10,000 is for property which isn’t much when you consider the price of a vehicle.
Basic liability coverage is fine if you don’t have a lot of assets. But if you have assets you need to make sure they are protected, and you will need considerably more than basic liability coverage. If you have a lot of assets you may even want to consider adding an umbrella policy for maximum protection.
While basic insurance protects other people from you, what about your vehicle? If you are a normal person you count on your vehicle every day to do the things that people do, go to work, shop, run errands, and more. If you are responsible for an accident you are responsible for repairing or replacing your vehicle. If you could do that without insurance then maybe basic coverage is okay but if it would be a hardship then you need to carry collision insurance. Comprehensive insurance is another type that protects your vehicle from things beyond your control
