Educate yourself about car insurance coverages

Understanding the coverages of your policy can be of help when determining appropriate coverage for your vehicles. The coverage terms in a policy can be difficult to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring. Shown next are typical coverage types available from car insurance companies.

Collision coverage

Collision coverage pays for damage to your Tucson resulting from a collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You first must pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision coverage protects against things like hitting a parking meter, colliding with another moving vehicle, hitting a mailbox, sustaining damage from a pot hole and crashing into a building. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so consider dropping it from older vehicles. Another option is to increase the deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive coverages

Comprehensive insurance pays for damage from a wide range of events other than collision. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive can pay for claims like fire damage, a broken windshield and hail damage. The most a car insurance company will pay at claim time is the cash value of the vehicle, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Uninsured and underinsured coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection from other motorists when they do not carry enough liability coverage. It can pay for hospital bills for your injuries as well as damage to your Hyundai Tucson.

Because many people only carry the minimum required liability limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is very important. Normally the UM/UIM limits are similar to your liability insurance amounts.

Auto liability

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

It consists of three limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. Your policy might show limits of 100/300/100 that translate to $100,000 bodily injury coverage, a limit of $300,000 in injury protection per accident, and a total limit of $100,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Occasionally you may see one number which is a combined single limit which provides one coverage limit with no separate limits for injury or property damage.

Liability coverage pays for claims like loss of income, medical services, structural damage, pain and suffering and attorney fees. How much liability coverage do you need? That is your choice, but buy higher limits if possible.

Coverage for medical payments

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage pay for immediate expenses like EMT expenses, funeral costs and doctor visits. They can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. It covers all vehicle occupants and will also cover if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP coverage is not available in all states and may carry a deductible
