Washington Minimum Coverage Requirements
The minimum auto insurance coverage required to legally drive in Washington is:
25/50/10
$25K bodily injury per person, $50K per accident, $10K property damage
These minimums are not the same as what most drivers should carry. State minimums protect you from a small fender bender — they fall far short of what you'd need after a serious accident with injuries. Most financial advisors recommend at least 100/300/100 in liability limits for households with meaningful assets.
