Stoughton, MA is 17 miles from Boston, 25 miles from Providence, RI and 35 miles from Cape Cod, MA. It's a busy thoroughfare for visitors, commuters, and travelers looking to experience all that the small town has to offer while checking out the nearby attractions. That means roadway congestion happens often, bringing new drivers to the area and presenting hazards to drivers on the road. 

To protect yourself and your car, consider partnering with an Independent Insurance Agent. Finding a local agent is easy and so is finding a Stoughton car insurance policy that meets your unique needs. Because our agents aren't tied down to one carrier, they can analyze your risks and compare quotes with numerous insurance carriers to give you plenty of options.

  • National average cost per year: $1,311
  • Massachusetts average cost per year: $1,460
  • 16th most expensive auto premium in the U.S.

Being 20 minutes from Boston, Stoughton can experience hectic traffic. That's why you need comprehensive coverage. But car insurance doesn't have to be expensive despite Massachusetts' higher-than-average rates. Let an agent analyze your risks and take your personal information, such as your vehicle's age, model and average mileage, to find a personalized policy. Your Stoughton auto insurance should be customized and affordable.

Massachusetts Car Insurance Requirements

  • Bodily injury liability: required
  • Property damage liability: required
  • Personal injury protection: required
  • Uninsured motorist coverage: required
  • Minimum liability limits: 20/40/5

Car insurance will provide protection and compensation after you get into an accident. But the state's required minimum limits of $20,000 for an injured individual, $40,000 for all persons injured and $5,000 for property damage may not cover all the damage. Chances are high that you'll have to pay a significant amount out of pocket for medical bills or property damage. Talk to an agent about higher liability limit options to give you peace of mind when you're on the road.

Number of Uninsured Motorists in Massachusetts

  • National number of uninsured drivers: 12.6%
  • Massachusetts number of uninsured drivers: 3.9%

Because the Bay State requires its drivers to have insurance coverage, there is a significantly lower number of careless drivers on the road. But if you get into an accident with an uninsured or underinsured driver, compensation can be extremely difficult or nearly impossible to collect. That's why you need a comprehensive Stoughton auto insurance policy with uninsured motorist coverage to help you stay financially sound.

Number of Auto Thefts in Massachusetts

  • National number of thefts per 1,000 vehicles: 2.94
  • Massachusetts number of thefts per 1,000 vehicles: 1.91

Stoughton is considered to be a safe and quiet town, but break-ins can happen without a moment's notice. You can help prevent burglaries by parking under street lamps or hiding personal property in the trunk, but there's only one way to fully protect yourself. An auto insurance policy with the proper auto theft or "other than collision" coverage compensates you for any damage your vehicle encounters. To learn more and consider your options, talk to your local agent.
