What are the different types of car insurance?
What does each insurance cover? I don't really understand the difference between different types of car insurance.

Bodily injury covers any injuries you may cause to someone else in an accident. Property damage covers any damage you may cause.
Comprehensive insurance protects your vehicle from damage that may occur from a covered peril. This often includes:
- windstorm damage
- a collision with an animal
- broken glass & vandalism.
Collision insurance protects your vehicle if in a collision with another vehicle or object.
Most states have minimum liability requirements while full coverage is typically optional.”
