This covers damage to your Shelby GT350 resulting from a collision with another car or object. You have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.
Collision insurance covers claims such as sustaining damage from a pot hole, driving through your garage door, backing into a parked car, crashing into a ditch and sideswiping another vehicle.

You might see policy limits of 100/300/100 which stand for $100,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a limit of $300,000 in injury protection per accident, and property damage coverage for $100,000.
Liability insurance covers claims such as structural damage, court costs, emergency aid and repair costs for stationary objects. How much liability should you purchase? That is your choice, but consider buying as large an amount as possible.
Your UM/UIM coverage provides protection when other motorists either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. It can pay for medical payments for you and your occupants and damage to your Ford Shelby GT350.
