  • What is high-risk coverage and where do I buy it?
  • What is UM/UIM insurance?
  • Does car insurance cover theft of personal property?
  • Does my policy cover my teen driver if they drive my company car?
  • Is motorclub coverage worth it?
  • How do I buy GAP insurance?
  • When can I cancel my policy?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions but you think they might apply to your situation, you might consider talking to a licensed agent. If you don’t have a local agent, simply complete this short form.

Educate yourself about car insurance coverages

Understanding the coverages of a car insurance policy helps when choosing appropriate coverage and the correct deductibles and limits. Policy terminology can be confusing and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording.

Liability coverages

Liability insurance can cover damages or injuries you inflict on a person or their property that is your fault. It protects you from claims by other people, and doesn’t cover your injuries or vehicle damage.

Coverage consists of three different limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You might see policy limits of 25/50/25 which means $25,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, $50,000 for the entire accident, and $25,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability insurance covers things such as repair bills for other people’s vehicles, emergency aid, medical services, pain and suffering and attorney fees. How much liability coverage do you need? That is up to you, but buy as high a limit as you can afford.

Auto collision coverage

This pays for damage to your Accord resulting from colliding with an object or car. You first must pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision can pay for things such as driving through your garage door, colliding with another moving vehicle, crashing into a building, sideswiping another vehicle and colliding with a tree. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from older vehicles. It’s also possible to increase the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)

This covers damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against claims such as hitting a bird, damage from a tornado or hurricane and vandalism. The maximum amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible consider dropping full coverage.

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance

This coverage protects you and your vehicle from other drivers when they are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. This coverage pays for medical payments for you and your occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Since a lot of drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their limits can quickly be used up. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Insurance for medical payments

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage provide coverage for short-term medical expenses for doctor visits, chiropractic care, funeral costs, dental work and EMT expenses. The coverages can be used in conjunction with a health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. It covers not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and will also cover if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP is not universally available but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage
