Auto insurance 101

Knowing the specifics of car insurance can be of help when determining the right coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. Policy terminology can be impossible to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring. Listed below are typical coverages available from car insurance companies.

Auto liability

Liability insurance will cover damages or injuries you inflict on other’s property or people that is your fault. This coverage protects you against other people’s claims, and doesn’t cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You commonly see policy limits of 50/100/50 which means $50,000 bodily injury coverage, $100,000 for the entire accident, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability can pay for claims like medical expenses, court costs and bail bonds. How much coverage you buy is a decision to put some thought into, but you should buy as large an amount as possible.

Auto collision coverage

This coverage will pay to fix damage to your M5 from colliding with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You will need to pay your deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision can pay for things such as hitting a parking meter, backing into a parked car, colliding with another moving vehicle, sideswiping another vehicle and scraping a guard rail. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are older. It’s also possible to bump up the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Medical costs insurance

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for bills like funeral costs, chiropractic care and surgery. They are used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if you lack health insurance entirely. Medical payments and PIP cover both the driver and occupants and will also cover any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is not universally available and may carry a deductible

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

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 protects against things such as hitting a deer, rock chips in glass, damage from getting keyed, falling objects and fire damage. The maximum payout you’ll receive from a claim is the cash value of the vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider dropping full coverage.

UM/UIM Coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle when other motorists either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. This coverage pays for injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Since a lot of drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. So UM/UIM coverage should not be overlooked.
