Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage provide coverage for short-term medical expenses like rehabilitation expenses, ambulance fees, EMT expenses and prosthetic devices. They can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance program or if you do not have health coverage. They cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants in addition to being hit by a car walking across the street. PIP is not available in all states and may carry a deductible
This will pay to fix damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first have to pay a deductible and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.
Comprehensive can pay for things such as falling objects, a broken windshield, hail damage and hitting a deer. The maximum amount a auto insurance company will pay at claim time is the ACV or actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s not worth carrying full coverage.
Collision insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from a collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You have to pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.
Collision coverage protects against claims like colliding with another moving vehicle, backing into a parked car and hitting a mailbox.

It consists of three limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You commonly see policy limits of 50/100/50 which stand for $50,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $100,000, and a limit of $50,000 paid for damaged property. Alternatively, you may have a combined limit which provides one coverage limit without having the split limit caps.
Liability can pay for things like emergency aid, medical expenses and structural damage. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is up to you, but consider buying as high a limit as you can afford.
Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle when other motorists are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. It can pay for injuries to you and your family and damage to your Acura RDX.

Most of the time your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are similar to your liability insurance amounts.
