Coverages available on your policy

Knowing the specifics of a auto insurance policy can be of help when determining the best coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. The terms used in a policy can be ambiguous and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording. Listed below are typical coverages found on the average auto insurance policy.

Auto collision coverage

This pays for damage to your SC 300 from colliding with an object or car. A deductible applies and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision coverage protects against claims like sustaining damage from a pot hole, crashing into a building, backing into a parked car and crashing into a ditch. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are older. You can also increase the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Liability insurance

This protects you from damages or injuries you inflict on people or other property in an accident. Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. As an example, you may have values of 50/100/50 which means $50,000 bodily injury coverage, a limit of $100,000 in injury protection per accident, and property damage coverage for $50,000.

Liability coverage protects against things like court costs, repair bills for other people’s vehicles, legal defense fees and repair costs for stationary objects. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is a personal decision, but buy as high a limit as you can afford.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM)

This coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other drivers when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered claims include medical payments for you and your occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Since a lot of drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage should not be overlooked.

Comprehensive insurance

Comprehensive insurance pays for damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against claims such as damage from a tornado or hurricane, hitting a deer, theft and a tree branch falling on your vehicle. The maximum amount you’ll receive from a claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider dropping full coverage.

Med pay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP)

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP kick in for expenses such as surgery, dental work, nursing services, doctor visits and EMT expenses. They are used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if you lack health insurance entirely. They cover all vehicle occupants and also covers any family member struck as a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not an option in every state but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage
