Insurance coverages and their meanings

Knowing the specifics of insurance aids in choosing which coverages you need at the best deductibles and correct limits. The terms used in a policy can be ambiguous and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording. Shown next are typical coverages found on the average insurance policy.

Collision – Collision insurance covers damage to your Safari Cargo caused by collision with an object or car. You will need to pay your deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision can pay for things like sideswiping another vehicle, scraping a guard rail, crashing into a building, backing into a parked car and colliding with another moving vehicle. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from lower value vehicles. It’s also possible to bump up the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Medical expense coverage – Med pay and PIP coverage kick in for bills for things like rehabilitation expenses, surgery, dental work and hospital visits. 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 coverage is only offered in select states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Comprehensive protection – Comprehensive insurance coverage covers damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You need to pay your deductible first then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive insurance covers claims like falling objects, damage from getting keyed, a tree branch falling on your vehicle, fire damage and damage from flooding. The most you’ll receive from a claim is the cash value of the vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Uninsured or underinsured coverage – Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection when the “other guys” either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. It can pay for injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is a good idea.

Liability – This can cover damage or injury you incur to other people or property that is your fault. It protects you against other people’s claims. It does not cover your injuries or vehicle damage.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. You might see liability limits of 25/50/25 that means you have $25,000 bodily injury coverage, a per accident bodily injury limit of $50,000, and a total limit of $25,000 for damage to vehicles and property.

Liability insurance covers claims like repair bills for other people’s vehicles, structural damage, pain and suffering, emergency aid and repair costs for stationary objects. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is your choice, but buy as much as you can afford.
