Motorcycle, ATV & golf cart insurance questions we hear
Policies vary by carrier and vehicle type. Here are a few common questions we help clients answer across Northeastern North Carolina.
Do I need insurance for an ATV if it’s only used off-road?
Even if it’s used off-road, coverage can help protect against theft, damage, and liability exposures. Requirements depend on where you ride and who owns the property.
Are golf carts covered under my auto or homeowners policy?
Sometimes there’s limited coverage, but it often depends on where the cart is used (on your property vs public roads) and the cart type/speed. A dedicated golf cart policy can provide clearer liability and physical damage coverage.
Can I insure custom parts and accessories?
Many carriers offer accessory/custom parts coverage or allow you to increase limits. Bring a list of major upgrades so we can match coverage to value.
What affects the cost of coverage?
Vehicle value, engine size/type, usage, drivers/riders, storage, deductibles, and coverage limits all influence premium. We’ll help you balance cost and protection.
