Educate yourself about car insurance coverages

Knowing the specifics of your car insurance policy can help you determine the best coverages for your vehicles. The coverage terms in a policy can be confusing and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording. Listed below are typical coverages found on the average car insurance policy.

Medical expense coverage

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance pay for short-term medical expenses like pain medications, funeral costs, nursing services and prosthetic devices. They are often utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. They cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and will also cover any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal Injury Protection is not available in all states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Liability coverage

This protects you from damage that occurs to other’s property or people that is your fault. This coverage protects you from legal claims by others. Liability doesn’t cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. You might see liability limits of 50/100/50 that translate to a limit of $50,000 per injured person, $100,000 for the entire accident, and a total limit of $50,000 for damage to vehicles and property.

Liability insurance covers things like structural damage, attorney fees and repair bills for other people’s vehicles. How much liability should you purchase? That is a personal decision, but buy as large an amount as possible.

Comprehensive protection

This covers damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first must pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against claims like hitting a bird, falling objects, a broken windshield, hail damage and damage from getting keyed. The maximum payout a car insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Uninsured or underinsured coverage

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage provides protection from other drivers when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered losses include medical payments for you and your occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Due to the fact that many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. So UM/UIM coverage is a good idea.

Collision coverage

This coverage covers damage to your Ram Pickup 1500 resulting from a collision with an object or car. A deductible applies then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision can pay for things such as crashing into a building, hitting a parking meter and damaging your car on a curb. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. It’s also possible to increase the deductible to bring the cost down.
