Car insurance coverages 101

Understanding the coverages of your policy aids in choosing the right coverages and proper limits and deductibles. The coverage terms in a policy can be confusing and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording. Listed below are the normal coverages found on most car insurance policies.

Coverage for collisions

This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You first must pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision coverage pays for things such as driving through your garage door, crashing into a ditch, hitting a mailbox and colliding with a tree. This coverage can be expensive, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Another option is to choose a higher deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Comprehensive coverages

This pays to fix your vehicle from damage that is not covered by collision coverage. A deductible will apply then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive coverage protects against things such as rock chips in glass, hitting a deer, vandalism, fire damage and a broken windshield. The highest amount a car insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Uninsured and underinsured coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other drivers when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered claims include medical payments for you and your occupants and also any damage incurred to your 2005 Chrysler Pacifica.

Because many people only carry the minimum required liability limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. So UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family.

Liability car insurance

This will cover injuries or damage you cause to a person or their property that is your fault. This insurance protects YOU against claims from other people. It does not cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Coverage consists of three different limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You might see liability limits of 100/300/100 that means you have $100,000 bodily injury coverage, a total of $300,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and a total limit of $100,000 for damage to vehicles and property.

Liability coverage pays for claims such as bail bonds, repair costs for stationary objects, medical services, funeral expenses and emergency aid. How much coverage you buy is up to you, but buy as much as you can afford.

Coverage for medical payments

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage reimburse you for immediate expenses for dental work, prosthetic devices, rehabilitation expenses, chiropractic care and funeral costs. They are often used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. Coverage applies to 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 coverage is not universally available and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
