How to Compare Insurance

All major insurance companies like Allstate and Progressive provide coverage prices online. Obtaining pricing is fairly straightforward as you simply type in your personal and coverage information as requested by the quote form. Upon sending the form, their rating system requests information on your driving record and credit history and quotes a price based on these and other factors. This helps simplify price comparisons, but the time it takes to visit several different sites and type in the same information can be a bit repetitive. Unfortunately, it is important to get many rate quotes if you want to find the lowest insurance rates.

The easiest way to compare insurance pricing utilizes a single form to obtain quotes from several companies at one time. It’s a real time-saver, eliminates form submissions, and makes online price comparison much more enjoyable and efficient. After sending your information, it is quoted and you can select any of the quote results.

Insurance coverage options for a 2015 MINI Cooper Coupe

Knowing the specifics of a insurance policy can help you determine which coverages you need and proper limits and deductibles. Insurance terms can be ambiguous and reading a policy is terribly boring. Shown next are typical coverages found on most insurance policies.

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

Comprehensive insurance will pay to fix damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You need to pay your deductible first and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive insurance covers things like theft, hitting a bird, rock chips in glass, damage from a tornado or hurricane and a tree branch falling on your vehicle. The maximum amount you’ll receive from a claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Auto liability insurance

Liability coverage can cover damage that occurs to other’s property or people that is your fault. This coverage protects you from claims by other people, and does not provide coverage for your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. You might see policy limits of 50/100/50 that means you have a $50,000 limit per person for injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $100,000, and a limit of $50,000 paid for damaged property. Occasionally you may see a combined limit which provides one coverage limit rather than limiting it on a per person basis.

Liability can pay for things like bail bonds, repair bills for other people’s vehicles and pain and suffering. How much liability should you purchase? That is a personal decision, but buy higher limits if possible.

Coverage for collisions

This coverage will pay to fix damage to your Cooper Coupe resulting from a collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. A deductible applies and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision coverage pays for things such as colliding with a tree, scraping a guard rail, sideswiping another vehicle, driving through your garage door and rolling your car. This coverage can be expensive, so consider removing coverage from lower value vehicles. Another option is to increase the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

UM/UIM Coverage

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage provides protection from other motorists when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered losses include injuries to you and your family and also any damage incurred to your MINI Cooper Coupe.

Since a lot of drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is important protection for you and your family. Usually these limits do not exceed the liability coverage limits.

Medical costs insurance

Med pay and PIP coverage reimburse you for bills for things like EMT expenses, doctor visits and surgery. The coverages can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance plan or if you do not have health coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover both the driver and occupants and also covers if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal injury protection coverage is only offered in select states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
