With such a large number of agents and online companies, how can you efficiently compare each option to find the cheapest available price?

Quote car insurance online

Most of the larger companies allow consumers to get pricing from their websites. Doing online quotes is very simple as you just type in the coverages you want as requested by the quote form.

Tailor your insurance coverage coverage to you

When choosing coverage, there really is not a perfect coverage plan. Your needs are not the same as everyone else’s.

For instance, these questions may help highlight if you could use an agent’s help.

  • Does my insurance cover damage caused when ticketed for reckless driving?
  • Does coverage extend to Mexico or Canada?
  • What is covered by UM/UIM coverage?
  • How much underlying liability do I need for an umbrella policy?
  • What are the financial responsibility laws in my state?
  • Does my 2017 Toyota Prius v need full coverage?
  • Can I afford low physical damage deductibles?
  • Will I lose any money if I cancel my policy before it expires?
  • How do I insure my teen driver?
  • Is business property covered if stolen from my car?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions, you might consider talking to a licensed agent. If you want to speak to an agent in your area, take a second and complete this form.

Coverage specifics

Having a good grasp of a car insurance policy can be of help when determining the best coverages and proper limits and deductibles. Car insurance terms can be confusing and nobody wants to actually read their policy.

Comprehensive (Other than Collision)

Comprehensive insurance coverage pays for damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You need to pay your deductible first then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against things such as a tree branch falling on your vehicle, a broken windshield, damage from a tornado or hurricane and hitting a bird. The maximum payout your car insurance company will pay is the cash value of the vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other drivers when they do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered losses include injuries to you and your family and damage to your Toyota Prius v.

Because many people carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is a good idea.

Collision coverage

This coverage covers damage to your Prius v resulting from a collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision coverage protects against claims like scraping a guard rail, backing into a parked car, colliding with another moving vehicle, colliding with a tree and sideswiping another vehicle. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to bump up the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Liability coverage

Liability coverage protects you from injuries or damage you cause to other people or property in an accident. It protects YOU against other people’s claims. Liability doesn’t cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. As an example, you may have limits of 50/100/50 which means $50,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a limit of $100,000 in injury protection per accident, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability insurance covers things like attorney fees, medical services, emergency aid and structural damage. How much liability should you purchase? That is your choice, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase higher limits if possible.

Medical expense insurance

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance reimburse you for bills such as EMT expenses, hospital visits, prosthetic devices, rehabilitation expenses and pain medications. They are often utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if you lack health insurance entirely. Medical payments and PIP cover you and your occupants and will also cover if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal Injury Protection is not an option in every state but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
