Learning about specific coverages of your policy can be of help when determining the right coverages at the best deductibles and correct limits. The coverage terms in a policy can be ambiguous and coverage can change by endorsement. Below you’ll find the usual coverages offered by car insurance companies.
Coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers – This protects you and your vehicle’s occupants when the “other guys” either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered claims include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.
Due to the fact that many drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is very important. Frequently the UM/UIM limits are identical to your policy’s liability coverage.
Collision coverages – This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. You first must pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.
Collision insurance covers things such as damaging your car on a curb, colliding with a tree and sustaining damage from a pot hole. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from older vehicles. You can also choose a higher deductible to bring the cost down.
Liability – This coverage can cover injuries or damage you cause to people or other property that is your fault. It protects YOU against other people’s claims. 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. As an example, you may have values of 50/100/50 which stand for a limit of $50,000 per injured person, a per accident bodily injury limit of $100,000, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery. Some companies may use a combined limit which combines the three limits into one amount and claims can be made without the split limit restrictions.
Liability insurance covers claims such as loss of income, attorney fees, repair costs for stationary objects, pain and suffering and court costs. How much liability coverage do you need? That is a personal decision, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.
Coverage for medical expenses – Med pay and PIP coverage provide coverage for immediate expenses like surgery, rehabilitation expenses, hospital visits, ambulance fees and chiropractic care. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance plan or if you lack health insurance entirely. They cover all vehicle occupants in addition to if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
Comprehensive car insurance – This pays to fix your vehicle from damage from a wide range of events other than collision. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.
Comprehensive coverage protects against claims like damage from flooding, damage from getting keyed, rock chips in glass and theft. The highest amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider dropping full coverage.
