David Pisanic: Uninsured motorist coverage is the most important coverage that you can buy, because you are protecting you and not anyone else.

John Doetzer: This coverage protects you and occupants of your vehicle, if you are hit by somebody who either doesn't have any insurance at all or has limits that are not adequate to compensate you for the damage and injury suffered by you and the occupants of your vehicle.

David Pisanic: You have to understand that there are great many people riding around you who don't have any insurance coverage at all. In most states you are not required to carry a great amount of coverage.

This guy has $20,000, the other insurance company is going to say, here is our $20,000, they are going to walk away and you are going to be left with how I am going to pay for the difference.

Speaker: Uninsured motorist coverage is your protection in case the person who injures you doesn't have very much insurance.
