Flood Damage Title
States issue flood titles when a vehicle has been in a flood or has received extensive water damage.

Medical Payments Coverage
Covers the medical costs (up to the specified limit you choose) resulting from an auto accident for you, your family, and others in your car. It pays regardless of fault.

Hearsay
Evidence based on what the witness has heard someone else say, rather than what the witness has personally experienced or observed.
