Your share of costs under the minimum

Wisconsin requires at least 25/50/10 in liability. $25,000 covers each person hurt, and $50,000 covers everyone hurt in one crash. Damage to other people's property is covered to $10,000.

Other people get paid through liability coverage. Unless you add collision coverage, repairs to your own car come from your pocket

If the cost of a crash exceeds your limits, you can face a claim for the remaining amount Paying for higher limits usually costs far less than the jump in protection.
