Having a good grasp of a insurance policy can help you determine the best coverages and proper limits and deductibles. Policy terminology can be impossible to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring.
This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by collision with an object or car. A deductible applies and then insurance will cover the remainder.
Collision coverage pays for things such as backing into a parked car, rolling your car and driving through your garage door. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. It’s also possible to bump up the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.
Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection when the “other guys” do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered claims include injuries to you and your family as well as your vehicle’s damage.
Since a lot of drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages should not be overlooked. Frequently the UM/UIM limits are similar to your liability insurance amounts.
Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP kick in for expenses for things like chiropractic care, X-ray expenses, funeral costs, nursing services and dental work. The coverages can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if you are not covered by health insurance. Coverage applies to not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants as well as any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is not universally available and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
This coverage protects you from damage or injury you incur to other’s property or people that is your fault. It protects YOU against claims from other people, and does not provide coverage for your injuries or vehicle damage.
It consists of three limits, bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. You commonly see policy limits of 100/300/100 that translate to a limit of $100,000 per injured person, a per accident bodily injury limit of $300,000, and property damage coverage for $100,000. Another option is one limit called combined single limit (CSL) which provides one coverage limit rather than limiting it on a per person basis.
Liability insurance covers claims like bail bonds, pain and suffering and legal defense fees. How much liability should you purchase? That is up to you, but you should buy as much as you can afford.
Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from 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 pays for claims like a tree branch falling on your vehicle, rock chips in glass, damage from a tornado or hurricane, a broken windshield and hitting a deer. The maximum payout 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.
