Knowing the specifics of your policy aids in choosing the best coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. Policy terminology can be confusing and reading a policy is terribly boring.
Medical payments coverage and PIP
Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for short-term medical expenses like hospital visits, prosthetic devices, X-ray expenses, chiropractic care and surgery. They can be utilized in addition to your health insurance program or if you are not covered by health insurance. They cover both the driver and occupants and will also cover getting struck while a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is not available in all states and may carry a deductible
Collision coverage protection
Collision insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You will need to pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.
Collision coverage protects against things like colliding with another moving vehicle, scraping a guard rail and hitting a parking meter. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to bump up the deductible to save money on collision insurance.
Comprehensive coverage
Comprehensive insurance coverage will pay to fix damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. A deductible will apply then your comprehensive coverage will pay.
Comprehensive coverage pays for things such as theft, hail damage and rock chips in glass. The most a insurance company will pay at claim time is the cash value of the vehicle, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value consider removing comprehensive coverage.
Auto liability
Liability coverage provides protection from damage or injury you incur to other’s property or people. This insurance protects YOU from claims by other people. It does not cover your injuries or vehicle damage.
Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. As an example, you may have policy limits of 50/100/50 which means $50,000 bodily injury coverage, a limit of $100,000 in injury protection per accident, and a limit of $50,000 paid for damaged property.
Liability insurance covers claims like loss of income, repair costs for stationary objects, medical expenses, structural damage and bail bonds. How much coverage you buy is your choice, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as much as you can afford.
Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage
Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle when the “other guys” are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. This coverage pays for injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants and damage to your 1996 Mercedes-Benz E-Class.
Since many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their limits can quickly be used up. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is very important.
