STATE INSURANCE MINIMUMS

The first number (1) represents the liability maximum for each individual injured party in an accident.
The second number (2) represents the total liability maximum for all injured parties in a single accident.
The third number (3) represents the total property damage maximum for a single accident.

All numbers are in thousands of dollars.
