Criteria which help determine

Car insurance premiums for a 2010 can vary widely based upon several criteria. A few of these criteria are:

• Your driving record
• Credit rating
• Your gender can raise or lower rates
• Low deductibles cost more
• NTSB crash rating for your vehicle
• Your claim history
• Having continuous coverage saves you money
• Owning a home can lower rates

An additional factor that can impact is the year of the vehicle. New vehicles have a higher value than older models so repair costs are higher which can inflate annual premiums. Although newer models may have safety features included like traction control, adaptive headlights, and automatic crash notification which can give discounted rates.

Liability

Liability insurance protects you from injuries or damage you cause to other people or property. Liability coverage pays for claims such as funeral expenses, loss of income, and emergency aid. Liability insurance is relatively cheap so you should buy higher limits if possible.

Collision protection

This coverage pays for damage to your caused by collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You will need to pay your deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder. 2010 collision insurance is rather expensive coverage, so consider dropping it from older vehicles. It's also possible to raise the deductible in order to get cheaper .

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage. The maximum payout a auto insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle's value is low consider dropping full coverage.

Uninsured or underinsured coverage

This coverage protects you and your vehicle from other motorists when they do not carry enough liability coverage. Because many people have only the minimum liability required by law, it doesn't take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is a good idea.

Medical costs insurance

Med pay and PIP coverage provide coverage for bills such as ambulance fees, surgery, and doctor visits. They are used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if you are not covered by health insurance. PIP is not available in all states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage.
