Why is it necessary for family members living with me to be insured at the same limits that I am required to maintain for my personal umbrella policy, even if they have their own auto insurance?

Your personal umbrella policy is designed to provide protection for you and for any relatives living with you. Therefore, their policies must meet the umbrella policy's requirements for minimum underlying limits for auto liability insurance. If you are comfortable with the risk, one option for you is to exclude your family member and their vehicle(s) from coverage under your personal umbrella policy. This can be accomplished by signing an exclusion form.
