Auto Insurance Requirement for CARS Program

State Farm auto insurance is reminding everyone that the Federal Government’s Car Allowance Rebate System (CARS program or “Cash for Clunkers”) requires participants carry auto insurance for their trade-in according to the article by Tony Potts on Coos Valley News' website.

Last week the US Senate agreed to extend the CARS program until Labor Day offering a great opportunity for many auto owners to receive the tax benefit. By trading in an older, less fuel efficient car for a new one, you will receive a tax credit. Keep in mind though that there are requirements, one of which includes having auto insurance. Trade-ins must be registered and insured for the full year before you decide to trade it in.

This is a reminder of how important it is for all cars to be covered by auto insurance. Uninsured drivers are a risk to everyone on the road, and it is the law in most states. Get a State Farm insurance quote if you are not yet insured.
