How Much Car Insurance do I Need in Minneapolis, MN?

Below we’ll explain what coverage you need to drive legally, which is your state required minimum liability limits, and what types of car insurance you may need to be truly protected.

Minimum Car Insurance Requirements in Minneapolis, MN

Minnesota car insurance laws require only that you insure yourself against bodily injury and property damage liability, so it’s your choice whether to add coverage for yourself, your passengers, and your vehicle.

If you have a newer model car, it makes sense to get comprehensive insurance and collision coverage. In Minnesota, comprehensive costs $292 and collision costs $666, on an average per year, according to a rate data analysis done by CarInsurance.com.

These optional coverages come with a deductible. That’s the amount you pay before your insurance company pays. Typical deductibles amounts are $1,000, $500 and $250 – you choose which one you want. The higher the deductible is, the lower your rate will be.

The best car insurance coverage usually isn’t the cheapest. You may be used if you’re in an accident and your insurance doesn’t cover all of the damages. That means your home or savings could be in jeopardy.

To protect your assets, you should buy liability insurance in the following amounts:

  • $1,00,000 to pay for others’ medical bills
  • $3,00,000 to pay for injuries to others in an accident you cause
  • $1,00,000 to pay for damage to others’ property

You should also consider buying these optional coverages:

  • Comprehensive, which replaces stolen cars and covers damage to your car from floods, fire, hail, vandalism.
  • Collision, which pays for damage to your car from accidents.

You can save an average of $2,361 annually on a full coverage policy in Minneapolis by comparing car insurance quotes, according to CarInsurance.com’s rate analysis. While savings will depend on your particular circumstances, this shows that there is a significant benefit to shopping your policy.

Minneapolis Congestion

Minneapolis came in at number 24 on the 2018 annual report compiled by INRIX on the “most congested urban areas in the U.S.” list and landed 132nd in the “world’s most congested cities for the 2018” traffic scorecard.

In 2018, Minneapolis drivers lost approximately $971 each annually because of congestion. That’s much better than congestion king Boston, which lost $2,291. According to the study, Minneapolis drivers spend 70 hours stuck in traffic per year driving an average 14 mph during the last inner-city mile of travel.

Minneapolis didn’t rank all that high on another traffic congestion measurement report, meaning, it’s not nearly as bad as other major cities. GPS giant TomTom releases an annual traffic index, ranking the most congested cities by country, continent and the world.

With a 17% congestion level, Minneapolis earned the number 60 spot in North America (number 49 in the United States) in a 2019 list that was topped by Mexico City, Los Angeles, Vancouver and New York, and the city’s congestion went up 1% from 2018. Minneapolis ranked as the number 352 most traffic-congested by world’s standards on the TomTom list.

The Most Dangerous Highway in Minneapolis

After analyzing three years’ worth of traffic fatality reports, security company A Secure Life discovered which roads had the most fatal car crashes from May through September. All data comes from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s Fatality Analysis Reporting System.

US-169 was  the most deadly highway in Minnesota with 27 deaths spanning from 2015 to 2017 in those months. The highway runs 966 miles from Virginia through Minnesota, including Minneapolis, and ends in Tulsa, OK.

Vision Zero Initiative

Minneapolis joined the national Vision Zero movement “to eliminate deaths and life-altering injuries on our streets. It is unacceptable that people die in traffic crashes on our streets. Together, we can prevent severe injuries and deaths caused by traffic crashes. To reach this ambitious goal, we are working with people from across our community to develop a Minneapolis Vision Zero Action Plan. The Action Plan will set our path to achieve a safe transportation network for all people.”

On Sept. 20, 2017, the Minneapolis City Council adopted a Vision Zero resolution “committing to the goal of zero traffic deaths and severe injuries on city streets by 2027.” The Vision Zero Action Plan is being coordinated with the Minneapolis Transportation Action Plan, which is a 10-year action plan to guide future planning, design and implementation of transportation projects for all people in all the ways they move around.

Both Action Plans provide implementation details for the vision set forth in the Minneapolis 2040 Comprehensive Plan, which also identified Vision Zero as a policy.

A comprehensive 76-page city traffic study that compiles crash data to aid in a plan to curb fatalities and injuries among pedestrians, bicyclists and drivers as part of the Vision Zero initiative revealed the city’s worst streets and roads.

Auto Thefts in Minneapolis

You know you parked your car in the third spot over from the shopping cart return. But it’s not there.

There is an upward trend in auto thefts in Minneapolis, based on numbers compiled by city officials. There were 105 vehicles stolen in Minneapolis in 2017,123 in 2018 and 137 in 2019.

Killed While Walking: Pedestrian Deaths in Minneapolis

Walk Score rates any address in the United States, giving it a “walkability score,” which determines how walkable a particular street or intersection may be. With a population of 382,578, Minneapolis scores high in the walkability category, coming in as the 11th most walkable large city in the U.S., with a “walkability score” of 70.

It gets a transit score of 57 and a remarkable bike score of 84. In fact, Minneapolis is considered the most bikeable city in the United States, coming in at number 1 on the Walk Score survey. With lots of bikes comes a greater chance of motorist-bicycle crashes. The Minneapolis Bicycle Master Plan calls for a 10% annual reduction in the number of bicyclist-motorist crashes.

Minneapolis isn’t unique in that it struggles with pedestrian-related crash fatalities and injuries, though it fares much better than many other major cities when comparing numbers in this category.

An average of 95 people are killed or severely injured in traffic crashes on streets in Minneapolis each year, according to the city’s Vision Zero report. The number of people killed or severely injured generally decreased from the mid-2000s until 2014, but has been increasing in recent years. In Minneapolis, crashes and injuries are concentrated on a small percentage of streets, often ones that have a high demand for walking, biking, transit and driving.

“People in Minneapolis make 15% of their trips on foot, but pedestrians are 29% of severe traffic injuries and deaths.”

Between 2008 and 2017, drivers struck and killed 49,340 people who were walking on streets in the United States. That equates to more than 13 people per day, or one person every hour and 46 minutes.

There were 361 pedestrian deaths between 2008 and 2017 in Minnesota, which has been ranked the 43rd most-dangerous state (plus Washington, DC) for pedestrians, according to a 2019 report called “Dangerous By Design” from Smart Growth America. The Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN, metro area ranked as the 89th most dangerous in the country for pedestrians, with 237 deaths during that time period. That’s an annual pedestrian death rate of 0.68 per 100,000 people.

Minneapolis Pedestrian Crash Study

The Minneapolis Pedestrian Crash Study assessed trends, contributing factors and characteristics of pedestrian crashes in Minneapolis over a 10-year span to better understand where, how and why pedestrian crashes are occurring in Minneapolis.

A few trends stand out from the analysis:

  • Crashes are concentrated to a small number of streets
  • Majority of pedestrian crashes happen at intersections
  • Most intersection crashes happen at traffic signals
  • Pedestrian crashes involving left-turning vehicles were more likely than right-turning crashes
  • Low-income and non-white majority areas experience more pedestrian crashes per capita than other areas of the City of Minneapolis
  • Older pedestrians are more likely to be involved in severe or fatal pedestrian crashes
  • Slower vehicles speeds result in less severe crashes.

Minneapolis Fatal Crashes by Race

Crash data gathered by the city for a Vision Zero report found that Native American residents are 1% of Minneapolis population, but are 8% of people killed in vehicle crashes and 9% of people killed in pedestrian and bicycle crashes.

The report also found that black residents are over-represented in fatal vehicle crashes in Minneapolis and underrepresented in pedestrian and bicycle deaths. White and Asian residents are less likely to die in a vehicle crash, it found.

The study also reported that while 31% of Minneapolitans live in census tracts in areas of concentrated poverty where over half of residents are people of color, 40% of all crashes occur in these neighborhoods.

Fix your Muffler: How Loud is “Minneapolis Loud?”

An idling brain is the devil’s workshop. And an idling car in Minneapolis can put you in violation of an ordinance.

The anti-idling ordinance restricts idling of cars and other gas or diesel powered vehicles to no more than three minutes in a one-hour period. The ordinance also limits idling of buses, trucks and other diesel engine-powered vehicles to no more than five minutes in a one-hour period. There are a few exceptions.

Your noisy vehicle, too, could violate an ordinance. It’s rather vague, but Minneapolis law says, “Outdoor amplified sound audible above the level of conversational speech at a distance of 50 feet likely requires a sound permit at any time.”

Minneapolis law also states, “Sound from motor vehicle sound system or audio system clearly audible beyond 50 feet from where it is originating is illegal. Direct complaints on motor vehicles to 911 or the Crime Prevention Specialist in your precinct.”

Distracted Driver Law in Minneapolis

As of Aug. 1, 2019, Minnesota law requires drivers to put down their phones and go hands-free while driving. At no time may a driver hold a phone in their hand unless it’s to obtain emergency assistance, if there is an immediate threat to life and safety or when in an authorized emergency vehicle while performing official duties.

This new law applies to all drivers over 18, anytime, anywhere and includes while driving on city business or using a city phone.

The law allows drivers over 18 to use their cell phones to make calls, text, listen to music or podcasts or get directions, but only using voice commands or single-touch activation without holding the phone. Under this law, there is no change for drivers under 18. All previous restrictions will stay as currently enacted.
