Discounts are great for lower rates

Companies don’t always list every discount in a way that’s easy to find, so the following is a list of some of the best known and also the lesser-known ways to save on insurance coverage. If you aren’t receiving every discount possible, you are paying more than you should be.

  • Anti-lock Brake System – Anti-lock brake equipped vehicles can reduce accidents and will save you 10% or more.
  • Paperless Signup – Some insurance companies may give you up to $50 just for signing your application over the internet.
  • Multiple Vehicles – Insuring multiple vehicles on one policy can get a discount on all vehicles.
  • Air Bag Discount – Vehicles equipped with air bags or automatic seat belts may earn rate discounts up to 30%.
  • Early Switch Discount – Select companies give a discount for buying a policy prior to your current policy expiring. It’s a savings of about 10%.

Keep in mind that some of the credits will not apply the the whole policy. The majority will only reduce individual premiums such as liability and collision coverage. So despite the fact that it appears you can get free auto insurance, it just doesn’t work that way.

You may need specialized coverage

When it comes to buying coverage, there isn’t really a one size fits all plan. Every insured’s situation is different so your insurance needs to address that. For instance, these questions might point out if you would benefit from professional advice.

  • When can my company non-renew my policy?
  • Am I covered when using my vehicle for business?
  • Does liability extend to a camper or trailer?
  • Will I lose any money if I cancel my policy before it expires?
  • Can I afford to pay high deductible claims out of pocket?
  • What is covered by UM/UIM coverage?
  • How high should my uninsured/underinsured coverage be in my state?
  • Does my insurance cover my expensive audio equipment?
  • How can I force my company to pay a claim?

If you can’t answer these questions but you know they apply to you, you might consider talking to an insurance agent. To find an agent in your area, take a second and complete this form or go to this page to view a list of companies. It only takes a few minutes and may give you better protection.

Detailed coverages of your insurance policy

Learning about specific coverages of insurance helps when choosing the right coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. Policy terminology can be impossible to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Below you’ll find the usual coverages found on the average insurance policy.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)

Comprehensive insurance coverage covers damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first have to pay a deductible and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive can pay for claims such as fire damage, damage from getting keyed, falling objects and a tree branch falling on your vehicle. The maximum amount your insurance company will pay is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other motorists when they do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered losses include hospital bills for your injuries as well as damage to your 1996 Acura SLX.

Since a lot of drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family.

Auto liability

This coverage can cover damage that occurs to other people or property that is your fault. It protects YOU from claims by other people. It does not cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Coverage consists of three different limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You might see values of 50/100/50 which stand for $50,000 bodily injury coverage, a per accident bodily injury limit of $100,000, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability can pay for things like emergency aid, legal defense fees, structural damage and court costs. How much liability coverage do you need? That is up to you, but buy as much as you can afford.

Collision insurance

Collision insurance covers damage to your SLX caused by collision with an object or car. You have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision insurance covers claims such as crashing into a building, hitting a mailbox, sideswiping another vehicle, backing into a parked car and sustaining damage from a pot hole. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from older vehicles. You can also raise the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Insurance for medical payments

Med pay and PIP coverage pay for immediate expenses for things like dental work, ambulance fees, rehabilitation expenses, doctor visits and EMT expenses. They are often utilized in addition to your health insurance program or if you are not covered by health insurance. Medical payments and PIP cover both the driver and occupants as well as if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal Injury Protection is not universally available and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
