Take policy discounts and save

Some companies don’t list every available discount in an easy-to-find place, so below is a list some of the more common and also the lesser-known credits that may apply to you.

Defensive Driver Discount – Taking a safe driver class could save 5% or more and easily recoup the cost of the course.
First Accident Forgiveness – This isn’t a discount exactly, but a few companies such as GEICO and Allstate will forgive one accident before your rates go up if your claims history is clear prior to the accident.
E-sign Discounts – A few larger online companies will discount your bill up to fifty bucks shop insurance on your computer.
Life Insurance – Some companies give a discounted auto insurance rate on car insurance if you buy some life insurance too.
Claim Free – Good drivers with no accidents pay much less when compared to drivers with a long claim history.
Policy Bundle Discount – When you have multiple policies and insure them with the same company you may earn over 10 percent off each policy depending on the company.
Driving Data Discount – Drivers who agree to allow their company to look at driving habits by using a telematics device such as Progressive’s Snapshot and State Farm’s In-Drive may get a rate reduction as long as the data is positive.
Cautious Drivers – Insureds without accidents can save as much as half off their rates for E-Class coverage as compared to drivers with claims.

Discounts reduce rates, but you should keep in mind that most discounts do not apply to the entire cost. Most only reduce individual premiums such as comprehensive or collision. Just because it seems like all the discounts add up to a free policy, it’s just not the way it works.

What insurance coverages do you need?

Understanding the coverages of a insurance policy helps when choosing the best coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. The coverage terms in a policy can be ambiguous and coverage can change by endorsement. These are typical coverage types offered by insurance companies.

Comprehensive insurance

Comprehensive insurance coverage covers damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You need to pay your deductible first and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive can pay for claims such as hail damage, vandalism, a tree branch falling on your vehicle, hitting a bird and a broken windshield. The most you’ll receive from a claim is the cash value of the vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider dropping full coverage.

Coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other motorists when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. It can pay for medical payments for you and your occupants as well as damage to your Mercedes-Benz E-Class.

Since many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their limits can quickly be used up. So UM/UIM coverage is a good idea.

Collision coverage

Collision insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from colliding with an object or car. You will need to pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision can pay for things like colliding with another moving vehicle, scraping a guard rail and backing into a parked car. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are older. It’s also possible to choose a higher deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Coverage for medical expenses

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP pay for bills for pain medications, hospital visits, X-ray expenses, dental work and ambulance fees. They are often utilized in addition to your health insurance plan or if there is no health insurance coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover all vehicle occupants as well as any family member struck as a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not an option in every state but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Liability auto insurance

This coverage provides protection from injuries or damage you cause to other people or property. It protects YOU against other people’s claims, and does not provide coverage for damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You might see policy limits of 50/100/50 which stand for $50,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a limit of $100,000 in injury protection per accident, and property damage coverage for $50,000.

Liability coverage protects against claims such as repair costs for stationary objects, repair bills for other people’s vehicles, emergency aid, medical expenses and medical services. How much liability coverage do you need? That is your choice, but buy as much as you can afford.
