Coverages available on your insurance policy

Understanding the coverages of your policy helps when choosing the right coverages for your vehicles. The coverage terms in a policy can be impossible to understand and coverage can change by endorsement. Below you’ll find the normal coverages offered by insurance companies.

Liability – This protects you from injuries or damage you cause to other people or property that is your fault. It protects YOU against claims from other people, and does not provide coverage for damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. Your policy might show liability limits of 25/50/25 that translate to a $25,000 limit per person for injuries, a total of $50,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and a limit of $25,000 paid for damaged property. Some companies may use one number which is a combined single limit which provides one coverage limit with no separate limits for injury or property damage.

Liability coverage pays for things like attorney fees, structural damage, repair costs for stationary objects, bail bonds and repair bills for other people’s vehicles. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is your choice, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance – This gives you protection when the “other guys” either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered losses include hospital bills for your injuries and also any damage incurred to your Nissan Maxima.

Because many people only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their limits can quickly be used up. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family. Frequently these limits are set the same as your liablity limits.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision) – Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You need to pay your deductible first and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against things like hitting a deer, fire damage and a tree branch falling on your vehicle. The most a insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Collision coverage – This will pay to fix damage to your Maxima caused by collision with an object or car. You first must pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision insurance covers claims such as hitting a mailbox, damaging your car on a curb, hitting a parking meter and scraping a guard rail. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Another option is to bump up the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Insurance for medical payments – Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP pay for bills for things like pain medications, rehabilitation expenses and funeral costs. The coverages can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover you and your occupants and will also cover getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not available in all states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
