Utah motorcycle insurance
Utah is a ruggedly beautiful state. Be sure to equip yourself with a motorcycle insurance policy so you can safely and legally explore the state’s five national parks and the wide open spaces in between.
What’s required of all motorcycle riders in Utah?
Here are some key rules of the road to follow whenever you operate a motorcycle in Utah:
Helmets: All operators and passengers under the age of 21 are required to wear helmets.
Handlebars: Your motorcycle handlebars can’t exceed the height of your shoulders while seated. Keep both hands on your handlebars at all times, except when making brief hand signals to other motorists.
Passenger seat and foot pegs: To legally ride with a passenger, ensure your motorcycle has a designated passenger seat and footrests or pegs.
Mirrors: Your motorcycle must be equipped with at least one side-view mirror.
What are the motorcycle insurance requirements in Utah?
Each state establishes its own specific motorcycle insurance requirements. In Utah, you’re required to carry bodily injury liability and property damage liability insurance coverages to legally operate a motorcycle. Also, be aware you’ll need to show proof of insurance to register your motorcycle.
Here are the state’s minimum motorcycle insurance requirements:
$25,000 for bodily injury liability per person
$65,000 for bodily injury liability for two or more persons
$15,000 for property damage liability
$3,500 for uninsured motorist (UM) property damage (if no collision coverage on the vehicle)
Remember, if you’re involved in an accident where the losses exceed these legally required minimum coverage amounts, you could end up paying the remainder out of pocket. Purchasing higher motorcycle insurance limits can help protect you and your assets in cases like this.
