Topic 7 · Insurance and Financial Responsibility
The minimum coverage for death or injury to more than one person is:
- $100,000
- $30,000
- $60,000 — correct answer
Why
$30,000 covers a single death or injury; the figure doubles to $60,000 when more than one person is involved. (Section 10, Insurance Requirements.)
