Car insurance is not cheap, but there may be some discounts to cut the cost considerably. Certain discounts will be triggered automatically when you quote, but some must be requested specifically prior to receiving the credit. If you’re not getting every credit available, you could be saving more on your auto insurance.
We need to note that most credits do not apply to your bottom line cost. The majority will only reduce the price of certain insurance coverages like comprehensive or collision. Despite the appearance that having all the discounts means you get insurance for free, it’s just not the way it works. But all discounts should help reduce your policy premiums.

Learning about specific coverages of a auto insurance policy can be of help when determining which coverages you need and proper limits and deductibles. The coverage terms in a policy can be impossible to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring.
Medical expense insurance
Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for bills for things like funeral costs, dental work, rehabilitation expenses, chiropractic care and X-ray expenses. They are utilized in addition to your health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. Medical payments and PIP cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants in addition to getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP is not available in all states and may carry a deductible
Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers
This coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants when other motorists are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. Covered losses include medical payments for you and your occupants and also any damage incurred to your HUMMER H2.
Since many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages should not be overlooked.
Comprehensive (Other than Collision)
This will pay to fix damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.
Comprehensive insurance covers claims such as hail damage, damage from a tornado or hurricane, hitting a bird and damage from getting keyed. The most a auto insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.
Liability auto insurance
This will cover damage or injury you incur to other people or property by causing an accident. This insurance protects YOU against other people’s claims. Liability doesn’t cover your injuries or vehicle damage.
Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. You commonly see liability limits of 25/50/25 which stand for a $25,000 limit per person for injuries, $50,000 for the entire accident, and a total limit of $25,000 for damage to vehicles and property.
Liability can pay for claims such as pain and suffering, funeral expenses and legal defense fees. How much liability should you purchase? That is up to you, but consider buying higher limits if possible.
Collision protection
This will pay to fix damage to your H2 resulting from colliding with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. A deductible applies then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.
Collision coverage pays for things such as driving through your garage door, hitting a mailbox, crashing into a ditch, sustaining damage from a pot hole and sideswiping another vehicle. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Another option is to bump up the deductible to save money on collision insurance.
