Learning about specific coverages of your auto insurance policy can be of help when determining appropriate coverage at the best deductibles and correct limits. Policy terminology can be difficult to understand and coverage can change by endorsement.
Liability – This coverage provides protection from injuries or damage you cause to other’s property or people by causing an accident. This coverage protects you from claims by other people, and doesn’t cover your injuries or vehicle damage.
Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. You might see values of 25/50/25 which stand for $25,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a limit of $50,000 in injury protection per accident, and $25,000 of coverage for damaged propery.
Liability coverage protects against claims such as bail bonds, repair costs for stationary objects, pain and suffering and funeral expenses. How much liability should you purchase? That is your choice, but buy as high a limit as you can afford.
Comprehensive (Other than Collision) – This coverage will pay to fix damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You need to pay your deductible first and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.
Comprehensive coverage pays for claims such as damage from a tornado or hurricane, a tree branch falling on your vehicle, damage from getting keyed and hitting a bird. The most a auto insurance company will pay at claim time is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much it’s not worth carrying full coverage.
Collision – This coverage pays for damage to your 911 resulting from a collision with another car or object. You first must pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.
Collision insurance covers things such as sustaining damage from a pot hole, hitting a mailbox, driving through your garage door, crashing into a ditch and rolling your car. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from older vehicles. You can also choose a higher deductible to bring the cost down.
Medical expense insurance – Med pay and PIP coverage pay for bills for things like hospital visits, doctor visits and funeral costs. They are often used to fill the gap from your health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. Medical payments and PIP cover both the driver and occupants in addition to if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal Injury Protection is only offered in select states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers – This coverage protects you and your vehicle when other motorists either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. It can pay for hospital bills for your injuries as well as your vehicle’s damage.
Because many people have only the minimum liability required by law, their limits can quickly be used up. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is a good idea.
When shopping online for insurance, you should never buy lower coverage limits just to save a few bucks. There are too many instances where an insured dropped uninsured motorist or liability limits and found out when filing a claim that they should have had better coverage. The ultimate goal is to find the BEST coverage for the lowest price while still protecting your assets.
We just showed you quite a bit of information on how to shop for 1991 Porsche 911 insurance online. It’s most important to understand that the more companies you get rates for, the better your comparison will be. You may even find the most savings is with an unexpected company.
Consumers leave their current company for many reasons like lack of trust in their agent, delays in responding to claim requests, delays in paying claims and poor customer service. It doesn’t matter what your reason, choosing a new company is easier than you think.
