Learning about specific coverages of insurance helps when choosing the right coverages and proper limits and deductibles. Policy terminology can be difficult to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring.
Uninsured and underinsured coverage – This coverage provides protection when the “other guys” do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered claims include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as damage to your Volkswagen Golf.
Due to the fact that many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages should not be overlooked.
Comprehensive coverages – Comprehensive insurance coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.
Comprehensive coverage pays for claims like damage from flooding, hitting a deer, damage from a tornado or hurricane and a broken windshield. The maximum amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider dropping full coverage.
Liability coverage – Liability coverage will cover damage or injury you incur to a person or their property in an accident. This coverage protects you from legal claims by others, and doesn’t cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.
It consists of three limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You commonly see policy limits of 25/50/25 that translate to $25,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a total of $50,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and a limit of $25,000 paid for damaged property.
Liability coverage protects against claims like court costs, repair bills for other people’s vehicles and attorney fees. How much liability should you purchase? That is up to you, but consider buying as high a limit as you can afford.
Coverage for medical payments – Med pay and PIP coverage kick in for immediate expenses like ambulance fees, dental work, pain medications and surgery. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance plan or if you are not covered by health insurance. They cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants in addition to if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP coverage is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
Collision coverage – This coverage will pay to fix damage to your Golf resulting from a collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You have to pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.
Collision coverage protects against things such as colliding with another moving vehicle, driving through your garage door, sustaining damage from a pot hole, sideswiping another vehicle and crashing into a ditch. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are older. Drivers also have the option to raise the deductible to bring the cost down.
