Auto insurance policy coverages for a 2010 Volkswagen Golf

Learning about specific coverages of your auto insurance policy can help you determine which coverages you need and proper limits and deductibles. Policy terminology can be ambiguous and coverage can change by endorsement. Below you’ll find the usual coverages found on the average auto insurance policy.

Auto liability insurance – Liability insurance protects you from damages or injuries you inflict on a person or their property. Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. You might see limits of 25/50/25 that translate to a limit of $25,000 per injured person, $50,000 for the entire accident, and property damage coverage for $25,000. Some companies may use one limit called combined single limit (CSL) which limits claims to one amount without having the split limit caps.

Liability coverage protects against things such as legal defense fees, medical services, loss of income, repair costs for stationary objects and funeral expenses. How much liability coverage do you need? That is a personal decision, but buy as large an amount as possible.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision) – This coverage covers damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for claims like damage from flooding, vandalism, hitting a bird and a tree branch falling on your vehicle. The maximum payout your auto insurance company will pay is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Insurance for medical payments – Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for immediate expenses like surgery, nursing services and hospital visits. They are used to fill the gap from your health insurance program or if there is no health insurance coverage. They cover both the driver and occupants as well as getting struck while a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is not universally available but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Collision coverage – This pays for damage to your Golf from colliding with another car or object. A deductible applies then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision can pay for things like driving through your garage door, crashing into a ditch and crashing into a building. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from vehicles that are older. It’s also possible to increase the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance – This coverage gives you protection when other motorists either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered losses include injuries to you and your family as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Due to the fact that many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea. Normally these coverages are identical to your policy’s liability coverage.
