Car insurance coverages for a 2014 MINI Cooper Paceman

Learning about specific coverages of a car insurance policy can be of help when determining which coverages you need and the correct deductibles and limits. The coverage terms in a policy can be impossible to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy.

Medical costs insurance

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP kick in for immediate expenses for things like surgery, rehabilitation expenses and X-ray expenses. The coverages can be used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover all vehicle occupants in addition to getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

This pays to fix your vehicle from damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first must pay your deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against things such as falling objects, hitting a deer and a tree branch falling on your vehicle. The most you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value consider dropping full coverage.

UM/UIM Coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage provides protection from other drivers when they are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. This coverage pays for medical payments for you and your occupants and damage to your MINI Cooper Paceman.

Due to the fact that many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. So UM/UIM coverage is very important. Most of the time these limits are similar to your liability insurance amounts.

Liability car insurance

This will cover damages or injuries you inflict on other people or property that is your fault. This coverage protects you from claims by other people. It does not cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Coverage consists of three different limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You might see liability limits of 100/300/100 that means you have $100,000 bodily injury coverage, a total of $300,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and a total limit of $100,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Occasionally you may see one number which is a combined single limit which limits claims to one amount rather than limiting it on a per person basis.

Liability insurance covers things such as repair bills for other people’s vehicles, loss of income, legal defense fees, bail bonds and funeral expenses. How much liability should you purchase? That is up to you, but buy as much as you can afford.

Collision coverage

This covers damage to your Cooper Paceman resulting from colliding with an object or car. You first must pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision coverage pays for things such as colliding with another moving vehicle, damaging your car on a curb, colliding with a tree and sustaining damage from a pot hole. This coverage can be expensive, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Another option is to choose a higher deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.
