State Encourages Snowmobile Insurance
CHICAGO (AP) -- If you have a snowmobile in Illinois, state officials want you to make sure it's properly insured.

The Illinois Department of Insurance said Tuesday that it encourages snowmobile insurance. The department says the insurance could help repair or replace damaged equipment or help owners if there is an accident.

Michael McRaith is director of the Illinois Department of Insurance. He says consumers should talk with their insurance company or insurance agent to see what insurance options are available.

McRaith says "Illinois residents should prepare for the unexpected by insuring their snowmobiles."
