Tailor your coverage to you

When it comes to buying coverage, there really is not a “perfect” insurance plan. Coverage needs to be tailored to your specific needs.

Here are some questions about coverages that may help highlight if you might need an agent’s assistance.

  • Is my state a no-fault state?
  • What can I do if my company won’t pay a claim?
  • Can I pay claims out-of-pocket if I buy high deductibles?
  • What is covered by UM/UIM coverage?
  • At what point should I drop full coverage?
  • When can my company non-renew my policy?
  • What is roadside assistance coverage?
  • Is my trailer covered?
  • Does insurance cover tools stolen from my truck?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions, then you may want to think about talking to an insurance agent. To find lower rates from a local agent, simply complete this short form.

Coverages available on your policy

Knowing the specifics of your auto insurance policy aids in choosing the right coverages for your vehicles. The coverage terms in a policy can be difficult to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring.

Liability coverages

This can cover damage that occurs to a person or their property by causing an accident. This coverage protects you from claims by other people. It does not cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. Your policy might show liability limits of 50/100/50 which stand for $50,000 bodily injury coverage, a per accident bodily injury limit of $100,000, and a total limit of $50,000 for damage to vehicles and property.

Liability insurance covers things like repair costs for stationary objects, emergency aid and structural damage. How much liability should you purchase? That is a decision to put some thought into, but you should buy as much as you can afford.

Uninsured or underinsured coverage

This gives you protection from other drivers when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered claims include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants and also any damage incurred to your 2006 Porsche Boxster.

Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages should not be overlooked.

Comprehensive protection

This coverage covers damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You need to pay your deductible first and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for claims like a broken windshield, hitting a bird and theft. The highest amount a auto insurance company will pay at claim time is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider dropping full coverage.

Medical expense coverage

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP kick in for short-term medical expenses for things like rehabilitation expenses, surgery, doctor visits, X-ray expenses and funeral costs. They are often utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover both the driver and occupants in addition to getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not available in all states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Coverage for collisions

This covers damage to your Boxster from colliding with an object or car. You have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision insurance covers claims such as sideswiping another vehicle, colliding with another moving vehicle, driving through your garage door, sustaining damage from a pot hole and scraping a guard rail. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. You can also raise the deductible to bring the cost down.

Saving money makes a lot of cents

Lower-priced 2006 Porsche Boxster insurance can be sourced on the web as well as from independent agents, and you need to price shop both to have the best chance of lowering rates. Some auto insurance companies don’t offer online price quotes and many times these small insurance companies only sell through independent insurance agents.

Insureds leave their current company for a number of reasons such as being labeled a high risk driver, policy non-renewal, high prices or even poor customer service. Whatever your reason, finding a new company is not as hard as you think.

When shopping online for auto insurance, you should never reduce coverage to reduce premium. There are too many instances where someone sacrificed physical damage coverage to discover at claim time they didn’t purchase enough coverage. The aim is to buy enough coverage at an affordable rate while still protecting your assets.
