Liability Insurance, or Rather Financial Responsibility are required by Law. Comprehensive and collision insurance is required by the terms of your finance contract with the lender.

How old the car is has nothing to do with it. The only time a car is REQUIRED to have FULL COVERAGE is when a car is being financed. In other words, a bank gives you a loan. Why?

I have owned ~5 cars in my life, financed one, and had full coverage insurance on it. Every other car has been liability only.

A type of liability in which you only lose your initial investment in the company is limited liability. This means that shareholders or owners are only responsible for the debts and obligations of the company up to the amount they initially invested, and their personal assets are not at risk. This is commonly seen in the form of limited liability companies (LLCs) and corporations.
