If you currently have coverage, we recommend you copy the limits and deductibles as close as possible to your current policy. This helps ensure you will receive a fair comparison for similar insurance coverage.

Tailor your coverage to you

When buying the right insurance coverage for your vehicles, there really is not a cookie cutter policy. Every situation is different and your policy should reflect that. These are some specific questions might help in determining if your insurance needs would benefit from professional advice.

Am I covered when using my vehicle for business?
Are there companies who specialize in insuring high-risk drivers?
Do I need PIP (personal injury protection) coverage in my state?
Do I need rental car coverage?
Which is better, split liability limits or combined limits?
Does my 2007 Jaguar X-Type need full coverage?

If you’re not sure about those questions but you think they might apply to your situation, you might consider talking to a licensed insurance agent. If you don’t have a local agent, simply complete this short form or you can go here for a list of companies in your area. It only takes a few minutes and may give you better protection.

Auto insurance coverage considerations

Learning about specific coverages of auto insurance can help you determine which coverages you need for your vehicles. Auto insurance terms can be difficult to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring. Below you’ll find the usual coverages offered by auto insurance companies.

Liability coverages

This protects you from damage that occurs to other’s property or people that is your fault. Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. You commonly see liability limits of 100/300/100 that means you have $100,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, $300,000 for the entire accident, and a total limit of $100,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Some companies may use one limit called combined single limit (CSL) which provides one coverage limit with no separate limits for injury or property damage.

Liability insurance covers things like repair costs for stationary objects, structural damage and medical services. How much liability coverage do you need? That is a personal decision, but consider buying as high a limit as you can afford.

Coverage for collisions

This pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from a collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. A deductible applies and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision can pay for things such as colliding with another moving vehicle, hitting a mailbox, rolling your car and sustaining damage from a pot hole. This coverage can be expensive, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are older. It’s also possible to increase the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first have to pay a deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive can pay for claims like rock chips in glass, theft, a broken windshield, a tree branch falling on your vehicle and damage from flooding. The maximum amount your auto insurance company will pay is the cash value of the vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider removing comprehensive coverage.

UM/UIM Coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other drivers when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered losses include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants and also any damage incurred to your Jaguar X-Type.

Because many people only carry the minimum required liability limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages should not be overlooked. Most of the time the UM/UIM limits do not exceed the liability coverage limits.

Medical costs insurance

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance pay for bills like rehabilitation expenses, dental work, doctor visits, surgery and chiropractic care. They can be used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if you lack health insurance entirely. They cover both the driver and occupants in addition to any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal Injury Protection is only offered in select states and may carry a deductible
