The cost of repairing the vehicle following an accident can be substantial.
The cost of purchasing a new vehicle if it is stolen or damaged beyond ecomonic repair can also be considerable.
Legal liability claims against the driver or owner of the vehicle following the vehicle causing damage or injury to a third party will also be factored in.

In many countries it is compulsory to have purchased auto insurance before driving on public roads.
