Vehicle Insurance Comparison

All the larger auto insurance companies give prices on the web. Getting online quotes is quite easy as you just enter your coverage preferences as requested by the quote form. Once you submit the form, the company’s rating system automatically retrieves credit information and your driving record and quotes a price determined by many factors. Online price quotes makes it a lot easier to compare rates but having to visit different websites and fill out multiple forms can get tiresome after awhile. Unfortunately, it is important to perform this step if you want to find the lowest possible prices on auto insurance.

The smarter way to lower your rates is to use a quote form to obtain quotes from several companies at one time. It saves time, requires much less work on your part, and makes quoting online much easier to do. After sending your information, it is rated and you are able to buy any one of the returned quotes. If the quotes result in lower rates, you can click and sign and purchase the new policy. The whole process can be completed in a matter of minutes and you’ll know if lower rates are available.

Which policy gives me the best coverage?

When it comes to choosing adequate coverage, there really is no cookie cutter policy. Everyone’s situation is unique so your insurance needs to address that. Here are some questions about coverages that may help highlight if your situation might need professional guidance.

  • Are rock chip repairs covered?
  • Which companies will insure high-risk drivers?
  • Does my personal policy cover me when driving out-of-state?
  • Does my insurance cover a custom paint job?
  • Can I pay claims out-of-pocket if I buy high deductibles?
  • Is my state a no-fault state?
  • At what point should I drop full coverage?
  • When would I need rental car insurance?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions, you might consider talking to an agent. To find an agent in your area, fill out this quick form or click here for a list of auto insurance companies in your area.

Insurance coverages and their meanings

Understanding the coverages of your insurance policy can help you determine the best coverages for your vehicles. The coverage terms in a policy can be difficult to understand and coverage can change by endorsement. Shown next are the normal coverages found on the average insurance policy.

Liability

This coverage can cover damage or injury you incur to other people or property in an accident. This insurance protects YOU against claims from other people. It does not cover your injuries or vehicle damage.

It consists of three limits, bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. You might see values of 25/50/25 which means $25,000 bodily injury coverage, a per accident bodily injury limit of $50,000, and $25,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability can pay for claims like repair bills for other people’s vehicles, medical expenses, pain and suffering and attorney fees. How much coverage you buy is your choice, but buy as much as you can afford.

Insurance for medical payments

Med pay and PIP coverage provide coverage for expenses for things like chiropractic care, surgery, ambulance fees and prosthetic devices. They are often used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance plan or if you lack health insurance entirely. Medical payments and PIP cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants as well as if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP is not an option in every state and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Collision protection

Collision coverage pays for damage to your GX 460 resulting from colliding with another car or object. You have to pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision coverage protects against things like colliding with another moving vehicle, hitting a parking meter, driving through your garage door and scraping a guard rail. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to raise the deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)

Comprehensive insurance coverage covers damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against claims such as damage from a tornado or hurricane, a broken windshield and theft. The maximum payout a insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance

This protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other motorists when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. This coverage pays for medical payments for you and your occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Because many people only carry the minimum required liability limits, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. So UM/UIM coverage should not be overlooked.
