An auto insurance policy is basically a contract between the purchaser of the policy, also known as you. The second party involved in a policy is the actual insurance company that is providing coverage for specified premium.

After you have purchased a policy from an insurance company, you need to make sure that you look over a booklet that the insurance company will give you. This little booklet is also known as the insuring agreement.
