Learning about specific coverages of a insurance policy aids in choosing appropriate coverage for your vehicles. Insurance terms can be impossible to understand and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording. These are the usual coverages found on the average insurance policy.
Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage – This protects you and your vehicle when the “other guys” do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered claims include medical payments for you and your occupants as well as damage to your Lexus LX 570.
Since many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. So UM/UIM coverage is very important. Frequently your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are set the same as your liablity limits.
Auto liability insurance – Liability insurance will cover damage that occurs to a person or their property. It protects YOU against other people’s claims. It does not 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 might see limits of 100/300/100 which means $100,000 bodily injury coverage, a total of $300,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and property damage coverage for $100,000. Some companies may use one number which is a combined single limit which provides one coverage limit and claims can be made without the split limit restrictions.
Liability can pay for things like loss of income, structural damage and funeral expenses. How much liability coverage do you need? That is up to you, but buy as much as you can afford.
Medical payments coverage and PIP – Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance kick in for expenses like funeral costs, doctor visits, X-ray expenses, prosthetic devices and dental work. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. They cover all vehicle occupants in addition to any family member struck as a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not an option in every state but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
Collision coverages – Collision coverage pays for damage to your LX 570 caused by collision with another car or object. You have to pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.
Collision coverage protects against things like sustaining damage from a pot hole, rolling your car, backing into a parked car, crashing into a building and crashing into a ditch. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are older. Drivers also have the option to raise the deductible to save money on collision insurance.
Comprehensive coverage – This pays to fix your vehicle from damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first must pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.
Comprehensive can pay for things such as a tree branch falling on your vehicle, a broken windshield, hitting a bird and damage from getting keyed. The highest amount you’ll receive from a claim is the actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.
