Progressive $90 for 2 carts and drivers. probably helps that our auto insurance is with them, too. Never asked about experience driving a cart!

If you are paying $100 a year or less you are most likely underinsured for all the risks you are exposed to in The Villages.

Bimmer - I have a fairly expensive cart only policy. If I also have an umbrella policy should I look at a less comprehensive cart policy?

Foremost through TV Insurance provides 100K/300K/100K liability coverage plus 5K medical per person with $250 deductible for $58 per year. Two drivers and little cart experience before living here. Rates have not changed in 5 years.

In order to get an umbrella policy you need to have "required" underlying limits on all of your other policies. My umbrella requires underlying limits of 250/500/100 on auto and golf cart policies. I believe those limits are pretty common for most umbrellas.

The intent of an umbrella is for more or less for catastrophic losses and not to be the primary policy relied on in most situations. So the high underlying limits are needed.

That makes sense. Thanks very much.
