Buy insurance online

Most larger insurance companies such as Geico, State Farm and Progressive allow you to get prices from their websites. Obtaining pricing is quite simple as you just type in your personal and coverage information into the quote form. When the form is submitted, their rating system will obtain credit information and your driving record and generates pricing information based on the information you submitted. This makes it easy to compare insurance prices but having to visit several different sites and type in the same data can get tiresome after awhile. But it’s also necessary to perform this step if you want to find the lowest price.

The quickest way to compare insurance pricing uses one form to return rates from several companies at one time. This type of form saves time, requires much less work on your part, and makes price shopping online a lot less work. After sending your information, it is quoted and you can choose any or none of the resulting price quotes.

If one or more price quotes are lower than your current rates, it’s easy to complete the application and buy the new coverage. The entire process just takes a couple of minutes and you’ll know if lower rates are available.

Car insurance policy discounts

Auto insurance companies do not advertise every policy discount very clearly, so the list below gives a summary of both well-publicized and the more hidden credits available to lower your premiums when you buy insurance online.

• Pay Early and Save – If you pay your bill all at once rather than spreading payments over time you can avoid monthly service charges.
• Distant Student Discount – Youth drivers living away from home attending college and leave their car at home could qualify for this discount.
• Theft Prevention Discount – Cars, trucks, and SUVs optioned with advanced anti-theft systems have a lower chance of being stolen and qualify for as much as a 10% discount.
• 55 and Retired – Drivers that qualify as senior citizens may be able to get a slight reduction on a insurance quote on E-Series van coverage.
• Smart Student Discounts – Performing well in school may save you up to 25%. The discount lasts well after school through age 25.
• Drivers Ed for Students – It’s a good idea to have your young drivers successfully complete driver’s ed class in high school.
• Multi-line Discount – Select insurance carriers reward you with a discount if you purchase some life insurance in addition to your auto policy.

While discounts sound great, it’s important to understand that most credits do not apply to the overall cost of the policy. The majority will only reduce specific coverage prices like liability, collision or medical payments. If you do the math and it seems like all those discounts means the company will pay you, you won’t be that lucky.

A few of the larger companies and a selection of discounts can be read below.

• State Farm includes discounts for Steer Clear safe driver discount, multiple policy, accident-free, driver’s education, good student, and student away at school.

Specifics of your auto insurance policy

Learning about specific coverages of your policy can help you determine the best coverages at the best deductibles and correct limits. Policy terminology can be difficult to understand and coverage can change by endorsement. Listed below are the normal coverages found on the average auto insurance policy.

Auto liability insurance

Liability coverage can cover damages or injuries you inflict on other people or property. This insurance protects YOU from claims by other people, and doesn’t cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

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 policy limits of 100/300/100 that means you have $100,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a total of $300,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and a total limit of $100,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Alternatively, you may have a combined limit that pays claims from the same limit without having the split limit caps.

Liability insurance covers things such as legal defense fees, medical expenses, structural damage, repair bills for other people’s vehicles and emergency aid. How much coverage you buy is up to you, but buy higher limits if possible.

Uninsured and underinsured coverage

This gives you protection from other motorists when they are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. Covered losses include medical payments for you and your occupants as well as damage to your Ford E-Series Van.

Since a lot of drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is very important. Most of the time the UM/UIM limits are set the same as your liablity limits.

Comprehensive coverages

This coverage pays for damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for things like fire damage, a broken windshield, a tree branch falling on your vehicle, damage from a tornado or hurricane and hitting a bird. The maximum payout your auto insurance company will pay is the cash value of the vehicle, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value consider dropping full coverage.

Coverage for collisions

This coverage covers damage to your E-Series Van from colliding with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You first must pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision coverage pays for things such as rolling your car, colliding with another moving vehicle and hitting a mailbox. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider dropping it from lower value vehicles. You can also choose a higher deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Coverage for medical payments

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage kick in for immediate expenses for things like dental work, surgery, X-ray expenses, chiropractic care and prosthetic devices. The coverages can be utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. It covers both the driver and occupants and also covers any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is not an option in every state and may carry a deductible
