No. New Hampshire is an at-fault state. When an accident occurs, the at-fault driver's liability coverage pays for the other driver's injuries and property damage. This means your state-minimum liability coverage must be high enough to cover a potential claim against you.

Uniquely, New Hampshire does not require auto insurance (only financial responsibility) -- low compelled-purchase rates lower pricing pressure.

Yes, in most cases. New Hampshire allows insurers to use a credit-based insurance score (distinct from your FICO) to predict claim likelihood. A poor credit-based score can add 20-100% to your premium. Improving your credit over 12-24 months can generate meaningful savings at renewal.
