Car InsuranceGretna drivers face some of the nation's highest auto insurance rates. Learn Louisiana's 15/30/25 requirements, at-fault rules, and how to save on coverage.
Louisiana requires minimum liability coverage of 15/30/25—that's $15,000 per person for bodily injury, $30,000 per accident for bodily injuries, and $25,000 for property damage. However, this bare minimum may not provide adequate protection. Most insurance professionals recommend at least 100/300/100 coverage to protect your assets if you cause a serious accident.
No, standard homeowners insurance does not cover flood damage from any source—whether from hurricanes, heavy rainfall, or river overflow. You need a separate flood insurance policy through the National Flood Insurance Program or a private carrier. Given Gretna's location near the Mississippi River and Jefferson Parish's flood history, flood insurance is essential protection that your mortgage lender may require.
Yes, multiple major insurers are reducing auto rates in 2026 due to new Louisiana insurance reforms. State Farm implemented a 5.9% decrease affecting over one million policyholders, while Progressive is cutting rates by 6.6% for about 270,000 drivers. These rate reductions should provide some relief for Louisiana drivers who have faced some of the nation's highest auto insurance premiums.
Starting October 1, 2025, Jefferson Parish earned an improved Class 3 rating in the National Flood Insurance Program's Community Rating System, up from Class 5. This improvement gives residents in unincorporated areas of Jefferson Parish—including parts of Gretna—a 35% discount on their flood insurance premiums, making essential flood protection significantly more affordable.
Driving without insurance in Louisiana carries serious penalties including fines of $500 to $1,000, suspension of driving privileges, vehicle impoundment, and license plate cancellation. Additionally, Louisiana's 'No Pay, No Play' law means uninsured drivers forfeit the first $25,000 in property damage claims and the first $15,000 for personal injury claims, even if the accident wasn't their fault.
Home insurance rates are rising due to hurricane modeling that projects higher future losses in Louisiana. State Farm implemented a 9.7% homeowner rate increase in 2026 based on increased hurricane risk and non-catastrophe loss experience. Louisiana's coastal location and history of hurricane damage make it a higher-risk market for home insurers, which drives up premiums across the state.
