Compare auto insurance quotes

There are several ways you can shop for auto insurance and some are easier and takes less work. You can waste a few hours (or days) discussing policy coverages with agents in your area, or you can utilize the web to achieve your goal.

Most of the best insurance companies participate in a marketplace that allows shoppers to submit their information once, and each participating company returns a rated price based on the submitted data. This eliminates the need for quote forms for every auto insurance company. To get comparison pricing now click to open in new window.

The only drawback to pricing coverage this way is that you can’t choose the providers you want pricing from. If you wish to select from a list of companies to compare rates, we have a listing of the cheapest auto insurance companies in your area. Click to view list.

The approach you take is up to you, just ensure you’re using the exact same coverage limits and deductibles for every quote you compare. If you are comparing different deductibles it’s impossible to determine which rate is truly the best. Quoting even small variations in insurance coverages can make a big difference in price. Keep in mind that making a lot of price comparisons will improve the odds of getting a better price.

When should I discuss my situation with an agent?

When it comes to choosing the right insurance coverage, there is no “perfect” insurance plan. Every insured’s situation is different.

For instance, these questions could help you determine whether your personal situation might need an agent’s assistance.

Is a new car covered when I drive it off the dealer lot?
What is the ISO rating for a 2010 Mitsubishi Galant?
How much can I save by bundling my policies?
Should I buy additional glass protection?
Is my state a no-fault state?
Do I pay less for low miles?
Does insurance cover damages from a DUI accident?
Can I make deliveries for my home business?
Do I need replacement cost coverage?
What is PIP insurance?

If you’re not sure about those questions, then you may want to think about talking to an agent. If you don’t have a local agent, take a second and complete this form.

Insurance coverages explained

Knowing the specifics of your insurance policy can help you determine appropriate coverage and the correct deductibles and limits. Insurance terms can be ambiguous and reading a policy is terribly boring.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage

This coverage gives you protection from other drivers when they are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. It can pay for hospital bills for your injuries as well as damage to your 2010 Mitsubishi Galant.

Since a lot of drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is very important. Most of the time the UM/UIM limits do not exceed the liability coverage limits.

Liability car insurance

This can cover damage or injury you incur to other’s property or people in an accident. It protects YOU from legal claims by others, and doesn’t cover your injuries or vehicle damage.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. Your policy might show values of 100/300/100 which means a limit of $100,000 per injured person, a total of $300,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and a total limit of $100,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Some companies may use a combined single limit or CSL that pays claims from the same limit and claims can be made without the split limit restrictions.

Liability insurance covers claims such as court costs, emergency aid, structural damage and loss of income. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is up to you, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Comprehensive coverage

Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first have to pay a deductible and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against claims such as falling objects, vandalism, a tree branch falling on your vehicle, hitting a bird and hail damage. The maximum amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Coverage for collisions

Collision insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. You first must pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision can pay for claims such as colliding with another moving vehicle, rolling your car and damaging your car on a curb. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. You can also increase the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Med pay and PIP coverage reimburse you for bills such as X-ray expenses, ambulance fees, EMT expenses and prosthetic devices. They can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance plan or if you do not have health coverage. Coverage applies to both the driver and occupants in addition to getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP coverage is only offered in select states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
