Alaska minimum coverage: 50/100/25
Alaska requires liability coverage on every registered vehicle. The legal floor:
- $50,000 bodily injury per person
- $100,000 bodily injury per accident
- $25,000 property damage per accident
Minimum coverage keeps you legal, not necessarily solvent: the average new truck costs more than $25,000 to replace, so one at-fault accident can outrun your property-damage limit.

Alaska questions, answered
Why is car insurance in Alaska cheap?
Alaska rates average about 18% below the national average, near $45/mo for liability and $163/mo for full coverage. Lighter traffic, fewer claims, and lower repair costs keep pricing down, and comparing 3 or more quotes can push your rate lower still.
What happens if I drive uninsured in Alaska?
Penalties for driving without required coverage in Alaska typically include fines, license and registration suspension, SR-22 filing requirements, and reinstatement fees, with exact amounts set by state law. A minimum-coverage policy usually costs less than the penalties. Verify current penalties with the Alaska Department of Insurance, then let Scout find a policy that beats the paperwork.
