New Hampshire: car insurance by state
Minimum car insurance each state requires, whether the state is no-fault, and how shared fault affects an injury claim.
| Minimum liability (bodily injury per person / per accident / property damage) | $25,000 / $50,000 / $25,000 |
|---|---|
| Other coverage you must carry | Insurance is optional; a policy you buy must include UM and medical payments |
| Fault system | At-fault (the driver who caused it pays) |
| Shared-fault rule | Modified comparative: barred at 51% fault or more |
| Shared-fault law | RSA 507:7-d |
Drivers without insurance must still be able to pay these amounts after a crash.
