Car insurance coverage basics

Understanding the coverages of your car insurance policy can be of help when determining appropriate coverage for your vehicles. The coverage terms in a policy can be confusing and reading a policy is terribly boring.

Collision protection

This coverage covers damage to your Supra caused by collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You will need to pay your deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision can pay for things such as hitting a mailbox, scraping a guard rail, crashing into a ditch, colliding with another moving vehicle and sustaining damage from a pot hole. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are older. Another option is to increase the deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive coverages

This pays to fix your vehicle from damage from a wide range of events other than collision. A deductible will apply then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive can pay for things such as a broken windshield, a tree branch falling on your vehicle and damage from getting keyed. The maximum payout your car insurance company will pay is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Auto liability

This provides protection from injuries or damage you cause to a person or their property that is your fault. This coverage protects you against claims from other people. It does not cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. Your policy might show values of 50/100/50 that translate to $50,000 bodily injury coverage, $100,000 for the entire accident, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery. Some companies may use one limit called combined single limit (CSL) which provides one coverage limit with no separate limits for injury or property damage.

Liability insurance covers things such as attorney fees, funeral expenses, emergency aid, loss of income and medical services. How much liability coverage do you need? That is your choice, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Coverage for medical payments

Med pay and PIP coverage provide coverage for immediate expenses for dental work, funeral costs, nursing services and surgery. They are often used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. Coverage applies to you and your occupants in addition to being hit by a car walking across the street. PIP is only offered in select states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Uninsured and underinsured coverage

This protects you and your vehicle’s occupants when other motorists are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. This coverage pays for injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Since many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. So UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family. Frequently your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages do not exceed the liability coverage limits.
