When choosing coverage, there really is not a “best” method to buy coverage. Everyone’s situation is a little different and a cookie cutter policy won’t apply. Here are some questions about coverages that could help you determine if your insurance needs could use an agent’s help.
If you don’t know the answers to these questions but one or more may apply to you then you might want to talk to an insurance agent. If you don’t have a local agent, complete this form or go to this page to view a list of companies.
Knowing the specifics of your policy can help you determine which coverages you need and proper limits and deductibles. The terms used in a policy can be impossible to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Listed below are typical coverages offered by insurance companies.
This coverage pays for damage that is not covered by collision coverage. A deductible will apply and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.
Comprehensive insurance covers claims such as falling objects, rock chips in glass, damage from flooding and fire damage. The maximum amount you’ll receive from a claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much it’s not worth carrying full coverage.
Collision insurance covers damage to your CL-Class from colliding with an object or car. You first must pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.
Collision coverage protects against claims like hitting a parking meter, colliding with another moving vehicle and crashing into a building. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so consider dropping it from lower value vehicles. Drivers also have the option to choose a higher deductible to bring the cost down.
Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage kick in for immediate expenses for things like rehabilitation expenses, surgery, doctor visits, pain medications and ambulance fees. They are often used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover all vehicle occupants and also covers being hit by a car walking across the street. PIP coverage is not universally available and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
Liability insurance provides protection from damage or injury you incur to other people or property. Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. Your policy might show limits of 50/100/50 which means $50,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a limit of $100,000 in injury protection per accident, and property damage coverage for $50,000.
Liability insurance covers claims like medical expenses, loss of income, repair bills for other people’s vehicles, medical services and pain and suffering. How much liability should you purchase? That is a personal decision, but you should buy as high a limit as you can afford.
This coverage gives you protection when the “other guys” either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. It can pay for injuries to you and your family as well as your vehicle’s damage.
Since a lot of drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their limits can quickly be used up. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea.
