Auto Insurance For PetsThe Travel Industry of America says that out of the 71 million people in the United States who own dogs, some 29 million travel with their pet. Many auto insurance companies are beginning to recognize this fact and are taking steps to provide some insurance coverage for these traveling pets.

 

 

What If Fido Is Injured While Driving?

Progressive Insurance Company, the 10th largest auto insurance company, is one auto insurance company to introduce Pet Injury Coverage which will allow an auto insurance policy to protect your dog or cat, too.

Progressive’s pet auto insurance benefit is now available in 46 states and the District of Columbia. According to Progressive, pet insurance is not yet available in North Carolina, New Hampshire, New York and Virginia, but hopefully pet insurance will be coming to those states soon.

How Does Pet Injury Insurance Coverage Work?

According to Progressive, pet injury coverage is built in to the “Collision” coverage in an auto insurance policy. There’s no added cost whether a person chooses to use it or not use it.

Your pet is covered for vet costs up to $500 when injury occurs from an auto accident.

If you drive with your pet, you need to be a responsible pet owner. As travel with our pets increase, many states are creating laws addressing dogs in vehicles.

The state of California requires dogs in the back of a pickup to be either caged or cross-tied to the truck.

Other states like New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts, Oregon and Florida restrict dogs from open vehicles.
