How to Compare Insurance

Lowering your 2012 Mercedes-Benz E-Class insurance rates is not a difficult process. Drivers just need to take a few minutes to compare quotes from different insurance companies. This is very easy and can be done in a couple of different ways.

• The first (and easiest) way to find the lowest comparison rates is to use a rate comparison form (click to open form in new window). This easy form eliminates the need for repetitive form entry to each individual insurance company. One simple form will return price quotes from multiple low-cost companies. This is perfect if you don’t have a lot of time.
• A harder way to get quotes online is spending the time to visit each individual company website and request a quote. For instance, let’s say you want rates from Nationwide, Allstate and Progressive. To find out each rate you need to take the time to go to each site to input your insurance information, which is why the first method is more popular.

It’s up to you how you get prices quotes, just be sure to compare identical quote information for every quote you compare. If your comparisons have mixed coverages you will not be able to determine the lowest rate for your Mercedes-Benz E-Class.

When should I use an insurance agent?

When it comes to choosing proper insurance coverage for your personal vehicles, there really is no perfect coverage plan. Everyone’s situation is unique.

For example, these questions might point out if you will benefit from professional help.

• Does coverage extend to my business vehicle?

• Do I have coverage when using my vehicle for my home business?
• Can I make deliveries for my home business?
• Do I really need UM/UIM coverage?
• How do I buy GAP insurance?
• Is my nanny covered when driving my vehicle?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions but one or more may apply to you then you might want to talk to an insurance agent. To find an agent in your area, fill out this quick form. It’s fast, doesn’t cost anything and can provide invaluable advice.

Auto insurance specifics

Having a good grasp of your auto insurance policy helps when choosing appropriate coverage for your vehicles. The coverage terms in a policy can be confusing and nobody wants to actually read their policy.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage gives you protection from other motorists when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. This coverage pays for hospital bills for your injuries as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Since a lot of drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their limits can quickly be used up. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage should not be overlooked.

Liability coverage

Liability insurance protects you from damage or injury you incur to a person or their property. This insurance protects YOU against other people’s claims. Liability doesn’t cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Liability coverage has three limits: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You commonly see limits of 50/100/50 that translate to a limit of $50,000 per injured person, $100,000 for the entire accident, and property damage coverage for $50,000.

Liability coverage protects against claims like court costs, loss of income and repair bills for other people’s vehicles. How much coverage you buy is up to you, but consider buying as large an amount as possible.

Medical payments and PIP coverage

Med pay and PIP coverage provide coverage for expenses like doctor visits, X-ray expenses and nursing services. They are often used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. They cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and also covers if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP is not an option in every state and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Collision coverage protection

This pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from a collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You have to pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision can pay for claims such as crashing into a building, hitting a parking meter, crashing into a ditch, backing into a parked car and colliding with a tree. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are older. It’s also possible to raise the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Comprehensive auto coverage

This coverage covers damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first must pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive can pay for claims such as fire damage, damage from a tornado or hurricane, vandalism, a broken windshield and theft. The highest amount your auto insurance company will pay is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.
