How to Compare Auto Insurance Quotes

Most companies provide coverage prices on their websites. The process is fairly simple as you just type in your coverage information into the quote form. After you complete the form, the company’s rating system collects your driving record and credit report and quotes a price determined by many factors. This makes it a lot easier to compare rates but the time required to go to each company’s website and repetitively type in the same information is repetitive and time-consuming. But it’s absolutely necessary to have as many quotes as possible in order to get better auto insurance pricing.

The quickest way to lower your rates uses one form that gets prices from several companies at one time. It saves time, helps eliminate reptitive entry, and makes comparison shopping much more enjoyable and efficient. Immediately after you send the form, it is rated and you are able to buy any of the quotes that you receive.

If the quotes result in lower rates, you can simply submit the application and purchase the new policy. It takes less than 15 minutes and can result in significant savings.

When should I use an insurance agent?

When it comes to buying the right insurance coverage, there really is not a perfect coverage plan. Your needs are not the same as everyone else’s and a cookie cutter policy won’t apply. Here are some questions about coverages that might point out whether you would benefit from an agent’s advice.

  • Will my insurance pay for OEM parts?
  • Are all vehicle passengers covered by medical payments coverage?
  • Am I covered when pulling a rental trailer?
  • Do I need an umbrella policy?
  • What is no-fault insurance?
  • Do I pay less for low miles?

If you can’t answer these questions then you might want to talk to a licensed agent. To find an agent in your area, simply complete this short form or you can also visit this page to select a carrier

Educate yourself about auto insurance coverages

Understanding the coverages of auto insurance can be of help when determining the right coverages at the best deductibles and correct limits. Policy terminology can be confusing and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording. Below you’ll find the normal coverages offered by auto insurance companies.

Liability auto insurance

This will cover damages or injuries you inflict on a person or their property by causing an accident. This coverage protects you from claims by other people. It does not cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. As an example, you may have liability limits of 50/100/50 that means you have $50,000 bodily injury coverage, a total of $100,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and a total limit of $50,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Occasionally you may see one number which is a combined single limit which limits claims to one amount rather than limiting it on a per person basis.

Liability insurance covers things such as medical services, repair costs for stationary objects and emergency aid. How much liability should you purchase? That is up to you, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as much as you can afford.

Auto collision coverage

This pays for damage to your Topaz resulting from colliding with another car or object. You first must pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision coverage protects against things like colliding with a tree, colliding with another moving vehicle and hitting a mailbox. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so you might think about dropping it from lower value vehicles. Drivers also have the option to choose a higher deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage

This coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other drivers when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. This coverage pays for injuries to you and your family and also any damage incurred to your Mercury Topaz.

Because many people only carry the minimum required liability limits, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is important protection for you and your family. Normally the UM/UIM limits do not exceed the liability coverage limits.

Medical payments and PIP coverage

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage pay for immediate expenses for things like nursing services, funeral costs and EMT expenses. They are used in conjunction with a health insurance program or if there is no health insurance coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and will also cover being hit by a car walking across the street. Personal Injury Protection is not universally available but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Comprehensive auto coverage

This coverage covers damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You need to pay your deductible first then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive insurance covers things such as theft, hail damage and hitting a bird. The maximum payout your auto insurance company will pay is the actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value consider removing comprehensive coverage.
