Liability-only insurance in Texas keeps you legal on the road. But it usually isn’t enough to protect you financially if you’re at fault in an accident and cause significant damages. Consider buying higher liability amounts for more protection.
Full-coverage insurance in Texas includes liability, collision, and comprehensive coverage. That means your policy will protect your vehicle in an accident or in non-collision events, such as theft, vandalism, or natural disasters.
The average cost of full coverage is $208 per month in Texas, and you can find the cheapest rates with State Farm. Below are quotes for cheap full-coverage car insurance in Texas.

Some Texas drivers may be looking to buy temporary car insurance coverage. The shortest policy you can buy is usually for six months, with a monthly payment schedule. But if you don’t need long-term insurance, or can’t afford large payments, weekly payments could be an option.
Insurify Car offers liability-only car insurance that lets you pay for coverage one week at a time, rather than committing to large monthly payments. You can buy your coverage, get immediate proof of insurance, pay weekly, and cancel whenever you want.

Auto insurance costs in Texas climbed sharply in 2024 due to factors like weather events, increased car accidents, and higher repair costs, according to the Office of Public Insurance Counsel.
Rates stabilized in 2025, with the average car insurance premium in Texas reaching about $2,470 per year, according to Insurify’s car insurance report. Insurify projects that this trend will continue, with only a slight 0.3% increase, bringing annual premiums to $2,477 by the end of 2026.
“One sneaky weather factor is hail, which leads to costly repairs for car exteriors and puts upward pressure on full-coverage rates,” says Matt Brannon, senior economic analyst at Insurify. “Texas has led the nation in hail events in recent years, and the average hail claim is about 22% more expensive than the average comprehensive claim.”
The chart below shows how average Texas car insurance costs have changed over the past five years.
Liability rates start at $58/mo.
Texas law requires drivers to have a minimum amount of liability insurance — often called 30/60/25 coverage — to legally drive in the state.[2] Liability coverage pays for the other driver’s injuries and property damage if you cause an accident.
Texas car insurance requirements include these property damage and bodily injury liability coverage limits:
Coverage Type | Texas Requirement |
|---|---|
| Bodily injury | $30,000 per person/$60,000 per accident |
| Property damage | $25,000 |
Texas uses TexasSure, an electronic verification system that checks whether registered vehicles carry active insurance.[3] You must show proof of coverage during traffic stops and when you register or renew your vehicle.
Insurers legally must offer personal injury protection and uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage in Texas when selling you a policy, but you can decline it in writing.
If you do get into an accident, Texas is an at-fault state, which means claims go through the at-fault driver’s insurance.[4]
Insurance costs can vary widely across Texas cities. For example, drivers living in El Paso or Grapevine may pay much lower premiums than drivers in Houston or Dallas.
