Verify you’re getting all your discounts

Companies don’t necessarily list all their discounts in a way that’s easy to find, so here is a list both the well known and also the lesser-known insurance savings. If you aren’t receiving every discount possible, you’re paying more than you need to.

  • Auto/Home Discount – If you insure your home and vehicles with the same company you could get a discount of at least 10% off all policies.
  • Payment Method – If you pay your bill all at once rather than paying monthly you could save up to 5%.
  • No Accidents – Good drivers with no accidents pay much less as compared to accident-prone drivers.
  • Low Mileage – Low mileage vehicles can qualify you for discounted rates on garaged vehicles.
  • Own a Home – Being a homeowner can save you money due to the fact that maintaining a home requires personal responsibility.
  • Discount for New Cars – Buying coverage on a new vehicle can be considerably cheaper because new vehicles have to meet stringent safety requirements.
  • Student Driver Training – Cut your cost by having your teen driver take driver’s ed class if offered at their school.

It’s important to note that most credits do not apply the the whole policy. Most cut specific coverage prices like liability, collision or medical payments. So despite the fact that it appears all the discounts add up to a free policy, insurance companies aren’t that generous.

Auto insurance coverages and their meanings

Learning about specific coverages of auto insurance aids in choosing which coverages you need at the best deductibles and correct limits. Auto insurance terms can be confusing and reading a policy is terribly boring. Shown next are the usual coverages found on most auto insurance policies.

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers – Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other drivers when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. This coverage pays for 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 limits can quickly be used up. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is important protection for you and your family.

Medical expense insurance – Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance pay for expenses like funeral costs, dental work, hospital visits, pain medications and rehabilitation expenses. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance program or if you are not covered by health insurance. They cover all vehicle occupants and will also cover any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal Injury Protection is not an option in every state but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Collision coverage – Collision coverage will pay to fix damage to your 780 caused by collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision insurance covers claims such as crashing into a building, hitting a parking meter and rolling your car. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so you might think about dropping it from lower value vehicles. You can also bump up the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Comprehensive (Other than Collision) – Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first have to pay a deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive can pay for things like a tree branch falling on your vehicle, hitting a deer, falling objects and hail damage. The most you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Liability coverages – Liability coverage provides protection from damage that occurs to a person or their property that is your fault. It protects YOU from claims by other people, and does not provide coverage for 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. You commonly see policy limits of 100/300/100 that translate to a $100,000 limit per person for injuries, a limit of $300,000 in injury protection per accident, and a limit of $100,000 paid for damaged property.

Liability coverage protects against things like repair bills for other people’s vehicles, medical expenses and structural damage. How much liability coverage do you need? That is your choice, but consider buying higher limits if possible.

One last thing
