Why do I need AD&D if I have life insurance?

Accidental death and dismemberment (AD&D) insurance is an insurance policy that pays a death benefit upon the accidental death of an insured or upon the loss of a limb due to an accident. AD&D is purposed to serve as a supplement to regular life insurance as coverage is limited to certain types of accidents.
