Tailor your auto insurance coverage to you

When choosing coverage for your vehicles, there isn’t really a one size fits all plan. Coverage needs to be tailored to your specific needs.

These are some specific questions may help you determine whether or not you might need professional guidance.

  • Do I get a pro-rated refund if I cancel my policy early?
  • When do I need to add a new car to my policy?
  • Do I need an umbrella policy?
  • Do I pay less if my vehicle is kept in my garage?
  • Should I sign the liability waiver when renting a car?
  • Is my teen driver covered when they drive my company car?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions but one or more may apply to you, then you may want to think about talking to a licensed agent. If you want to speak to an agent in your area, take a second and complete this form.

Car insurance coverage basics

Understanding the coverages of your car insurance policy aids in choosing the right coverages for your vehicles. Policy terminology can be confusing and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage – Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other drivers when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered losses include injuries to you and your family and also any damage incurred to your Mercury Tracer.

Due to the fact that many drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, their limits can quickly be used up. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea. Usually these coverages are identical to your policy’s liability coverage.

Collision coverages – Collision insurance will pay to fix damage to your Tracer resulting from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. A deductible applies and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision insurance covers claims like crashing into a ditch, hitting a parking meter and damaging your car on a curb. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider dropping it from older vehicles. You can also bump up the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Medical payments and PIP coverage – Med pay and PIP coverage reimburse you for bills for things like chiropractic care, ambulance fees, surgery and hospital visits. They are used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if you are not covered by health insurance. It covers not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and will also cover if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP coverage is not an option in every state but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Coverage for liability – This coverage will cover injuries or damage you cause to a person or their 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.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You commonly see limits of 100/300/100 which stand for $100,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a limit of $300,000 in injury protection per accident, and property damage coverage for $100,000. Alternatively, you may have a combined single limit or CSL which combines the three limits into one amount without having the split limit caps.

Liability can pay for things like legal defense fees, court costs, repair bills for other people’s vehicles and bail bonds. How much coverage you buy is a personal decision, but you should buy as large an amount as possible.

Comprehensive auto coverage – Comprehensive insurance will pay to fix damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You need to pay your deductible first then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against things like damage from getting keyed, a broken windshield, theft, rock chips in glass and a tree branch falling on your vehicle. The maximum payout a car insurance company will pay at claim time is the ACV or actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s not worth carrying full coverage.
