Insurance policy coverages for a Mercury Grand Marquis

Understanding the coverages of insurance aids in choosing the best coverages for your vehicles. Policy terminology can be confusing and nobody wants to actually read their policy.

Collision coverage – This pays for damage to your Grand Marquis resulting from colliding with another car or object. You have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision insurance covers claims like colliding with a tree, colliding with another moving vehicle and crashing into a ditch. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are older. You can also raise the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive auto coverage – This pays for damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. A deductible will apply and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against things such as hail damage, vandalism and damage from flooding. The most you’ll receive from a claim is the actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Liability insurance – This coverage can cover damage that occurs to other people or property in an accident. This coverage protects you from claims by other people. It does not cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

It consists of three limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You commonly see values of 50/100/50 that means you have $50,000 bodily injury coverage, a per accident bodily injury limit of $100,000, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability coverage pays for things like structural damage, funeral expenses, medical expenses and court costs. How much liability should you purchase? That is a decision to put some thought into, but consider buying as much as you can afford.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage – Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other drivers when they are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. It can pay for medical payments for you and your occupants and damage to your 2003 Mercury Grand Marquis.

Since a lot of drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. So UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Medical payments and PIP coverage – Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage provide coverage for bills for things like doctor visits, ambulance fees, EMT expenses and prosthetic devices. The coverages can be used in conjunction with a health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. Medical payments and PIP cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and also covers being hit by a car walking across the street. PIP is only offered in select states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
