• Is my babysitter covered when using my vehicle?
• Am I covered if I hit a deer?
• I have health insurance so do I need medical payments coverage?
• Am I covered when driving a rental car?

Insurance coverage breakdown

Learning about specific coverages of a insurance policy can help you determine appropriate coverage for your vehicles. The terms used in a policy can be confusing and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Listed below are the usual coverages found on the average insurance policy.

Auto collision coverage

Collision coverage pays for damage to your Golf resulting from colliding with another car or object. You first must pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision can pay for claims such as colliding with another moving vehicle, sustaining damage from a pot hole, rolling your car and driving through your garage door. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from lower value vehicles. You can also raise the deductible to bring the cost down.

Med pay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP)

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for short-term medical expenses for things like doctor visits, nursing services, funeral costs and hospital visits. They are used to fill the gap from your health insurance plan or if you are not covered by health insurance. Coverage applies to both the driver and occupants and also covers any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal Injury Protection is only offered in select states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM)

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants when the “other guys” either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered claims include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants and also any damage incurred to your Volkswagen Golf.

Due to the fact that many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage should not be overlooked.

Liability car insurance

This coverage will cover damage that occurs to other people or property. It protects you from claims by other people. It does not cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You might see limits of 50/100/50 that translate to $50,000 bodily injury coverage, $100,000 for the entire accident, and a total limit of $50,000 for damage to vehicles and property.

Liability coverage pays for claims such as medical services, loss of income and attorney fees. How much liability coverage do you need? That is up to you, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase higher limits if possible.

Comprehensive insurance

This coverage covers damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first must pay your deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive can pay for things like falling objects, a tree branch falling on your vehicle, hail damage and vandalism. The maximum amount you’ll receive from a claim is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.
