Insurance specifics

Knowing the specifics of insurance can help you determine the right coverages for your vehicles. The terms used in a policy can be confusing and coverage can change by endorsement. These are the normal coverages found on the average insurance policy.

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

This coverage pays for damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You need to pay your deductible first then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive coverage pays for things such as falling objects, theft and vandalism. The highest amount a insurance company will pay at claim time is the ACV or actual cash value, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible consider dropping full coverage.

Collision insurance

Collision insurance pays for damage to your Monterey from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. You first must pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision coverage pays for things such as scraping a guard rail, colliding with a tree, crashing into a building and hitting a parking meter. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so consider removing coverage from older vehicles. Another option is to raise the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

UM/UIM Coverage

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants when other motorists are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. It can pay for injuries to you and your family and also any damage incurred to your Mercury Monterey.

Since a lot of drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is a good idea. Normally the UM/UIM limits do not exceed the liability coverage limits.

Medical costs insurance

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage provide coverage for expenses for things like EMT expenses, nursing services, doctor visits and dental work. They can be utilized in addition to your health insurance program or if you do not have health coverage. It covers not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants in addition to being hit by a car walking across the street. PIP coverage is not an option in every state and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Coverage for liability

This will cover damages or injuries you inflict on other’s property or people. This insurance protects YOU against claims from other people. Liability doesn’t cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You might see limits of 50/100/50 that means you have a limit of $50,000 per injured person, $100,000 for the entire accident, and a total limit of $50,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Occasionally you may see a combined single limit or CSL that pays claims from the same limit with no separate limits for injury or property damage.

Liability insurance covers things like medical expenses, loss of income and emergency aid. How much liability should you purchase? That is a decision to put some thought into, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.
