Tailor your car insurance coverage to you

When it comes to buying proper insurance coverage, there really is no “best” method to buy coverage. Everyone’s situation is unique.

For instance, these questions can aid in determining if your situation would benefit from professional advice.

  • Do I have coverage when using my vehicle for my home business?
  • How do I file an SR-22 for a DUI in my state?
  • Do I need medical payments coverage since I have good health insurance?
  • Can my babysitter drive my car?
  • How much underlying liability do I need for an umbrella policy?
  • Should I buy only the required minimum liability coverage?
  • I have good health insurance, so how much medical payments coverage do I need?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions but one or more may apply to you, you might consider talking to a licensed agent. If you want to speak to an agent in your area, simply complete this short form. It’s fast, doesn’t cost anything and can provide invaluable advice.

Educate yourself about insurance coverages

Learning about specific coverages of insurance can help you determine which coverages you need and proper limits and deductibles. Policy terminology can be difficult to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy.

Comprehensive coverage

This pays for damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive insurance covers things like rock chips in glass, falling objects, hitting a bird and theft. The maximum amount your insurance company will pay is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Collision coverage

Collision coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage from colliding with another car or object. A deductible applies then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision coverage protects against claims such as colliding with another moving vehicle, backing into a parked car and driving through your garage door. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so you might think about dropping it from older vehicles. You can also bump up the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance provide coverage for immediate expenses such as nursing services, prosthetic devices, dental work and pain medications. They are often used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if you lack health insurance entirely. It covers all vehicle occupants and will also cover any family member struck as a pedestrian. PIP is not an option in every state but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage

This coverage provides protection when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. It can pay for injuries to you and your family as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Due to the fact that many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. So UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Liability insurance

This coverage will cover injuries or damage you cause to other people or property by causing an accident. It protects you against claims from other people. It does not cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. Your policy might show values of 25/50/25 that means you have $25,000 bodily injury coverage, a per accident bodily injury limit of $50,000, and property damage coverage for $25,000.

Liability can pay for things such as court costs, legal defense fees, loss of income and repair bills for other people’s vehicles. How much liability should you purchase? That is your choice, but you should buy higher limits if possible.
