While I cannot speak to the details of your personal insurance policy, generally GEICO's roadside assistance does provide lockout services for up to $100. However, this does not mean that they would pay for the services directly, but instead would reimburse you after-the-fact if you were to submit a claim. To get help, GEICO recommends using their app, requesting assistance online, or calling them directly. Good luck!

I have liability coverage only and I hit a highway median. Am I covered for any damages?

Liability insurance only covers damages you directly cause. It never covers your own property. If the state seeks damages and the insurance was not active you do open yourself up to potential lawsuits for them to collect their damages.
