Car insurance coverages for a 1992 Lexus ES 300

Understanding the coverages of a insurance policy helps when choosing which coverages you need and proper limits and deductibles. Insurance terms can be confusing and coverage can change by endorsement. Listed below are the usual coverages found on the average insurance policy.

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers – Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other motorists when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered claims include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as damage to your Lexus ES 300.

Since many drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, their limits can quickly be used up. So UM/UIM coverage is a good idea.

Medical expense insurance – Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance kick in for immediate expenses for rehabilitation expenses, dental work, doctor visits, nursing services and funeral costs. They are often used to fill the gap from your health insurance program or if you do not have health coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover you and your occupants and will also cover being hit by a car walking across the street. PIP coverage is not an option in every state and may carry a deductible

Comprehensive (Other than Collision) – This pays for damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first must pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for things like damage from a tornado or hurricane, damage from getting keyed, hail damage, a broken windshield and falling objects. The maximum amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the cash value of the vehicle, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Collision coverages – Collision coverage will pay to fix damage to your ES 300 resulting from colliding with an object or car. You will need to pay your deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision insurance covers claims such as colliding with another moving vehicle, rolling your car, backing into a parked car, crashing into a ditch and sustaining damage from a pot hole. This coverage can be expensive, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. You can also bump up the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Liability – Liability insurance can cover damage or injury you incur to people or other property by causing an accident. It protects YOU from legal claims by others, and does not provide coverage for your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Liability coverage has three limits: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. Your policy might show policy limits of 50/100/50 that means you have a $50,000 limit per person for injuries, $100,000 for the entire accident, and a limit of $50,000 paid for damaged property.

Liability coverage pays for claims such as court costs, repair bills for other people’s vehicles and structural damage. How much liability should you purchase? That is a decision to put some thought into, but buy as much as you can afford.
