Vehicle insurance, also known as car insurance or auto insurance, is a type of insurance that protects the policyholder from financial loss in the event of an accident or theft involving their vehicle. It is typically required by law in most countries and states.

There are several types of vehicle insurance coverage, including liability insurance, which covers the policyholder's legal responsibility for injuries or damage to other people or property; collision insurance, which covers damage to the policyholder's vehicle in the event of an accident; and comprehensive insurance, which covers damage to the policyholder's vehicle from non-collision events such as theft, fire, and natural disasters. Some policies may also include coverage for medical expenses, roadside assistance, and rental car expenses.

When purchasing vehicle insurance, it is important to understand the different types of coverage available and choose the right policy to suit your needs and budget. It is also important to regularly review and update your coverage as your vehicle and needs change over time.
