Coverages available on your policy

Having a good grasp of your policy can help you determine the best coverages at the best deductibles and correct limits. The coverage terms in a policy can be confusing and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Listed below are typical coverage types available from insurance companies.

Comprehensive coverage

Comprehensive insurance coverage pays for damage that is not covered by collision coverage. A deductible will apply then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive can pay for claims like a broken windshield, vandalism and hitting a deer. The maximum amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for short-term medical expenses for prosthetic devices, hospital visits, doctor visits and rehabilitation expenses. The coverages can be utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if you are not covered by health insurance. Coverage applies to all vehicle occupants in addition to getting struck while a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is not available in all states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Coverage for liability

This coverage can cover damage that occurs to other’s property or people that is your fault. This insurance protects YOU from legal claims by others, and does not provide coverage for your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. You might see values of 50/100/50 that means you have a $50,000 limit per person for injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $100,000, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability coverage protects against things like loss of income, funeral expenses, repair bills for other people’s vehicles, pain and suffering and legal defense fees. How much coverage you buy is a personal decision, but buy higher limits if possible.

Collision coverage protection

This pays for damage to your 6 Series from colliding with another car or object. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision coverage protects against things such as colliding with another moving vehicle, sustaining damage from a pot hole, backing into a parked car and damaging your car on a curb. This coverage can be expensive, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are older. Drivers also have the option to bump up the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle when other motorists do not carry enough liability coverage. It can pay for injuries to you and your family as well as damage to your 2013 BMW 6 Series.

Because many people have only the minimum liability required by law, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is very important.
