  3. If you store a vehicle for the winter, ask about reducing coverage instead of canceling it so you avoid a lapse.

Alaska car insurance FAQ

Alaska requires Bodily injury liability $50,000 per person / $100,000 per accident; Property damage liability $25,000 per accident. Minimums are a legal floor, not a recommendation — many drivers choose higher limits to protect their savings and assets if they cause a serious accident.

No. Alaska is an at-fault (tort) state, which means the driver who causes an accident — through their liability insurance — is responsible for the other people's injuries and property damage.

Compare quotes from several insurers, ask about discounts (bundling, safe driver, paperless, good student), raise your deductible if you have savings to cover it, and keep a clean driving record. A local agent can shop multiple insurance companies for you at once.
