Different people need different auto insurance coverages

When buying proper insurance coverage for your vehicles, there really is not a “perfect” insurance plan. Everyone’s situation is unique and a cookie cutter policy won’t apply. These are some specific questions can aid in determining whether or not you would benefit from professional advice.

• Is borrowed equipment or tools covered if stolen or damaged?
• What are the financial responsibility laws in my state?
• Should I sign the liability waiver when renting a car?
• Do I need rental car coverage?
• Does my 1997 GMC Suburban qualify for pleasure use?
• When would I need additional glass coverage?
• Am I insured when driving a different vehicle?
• Do I need PIP coverage since I have good health insurance?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions but one or more may apply to you, then you may want to think about talking to an insurance agent. If you don’t have a local agent, take a second and complete this form or go to this page to view a list of companies.

Auto insurance policy coverages for a 1997 GMC Suburban

Understanding the coverages of your auto insurance policy aids in choosing which coverages you need for your vehicles. Auto insurance terms can be confusing and reading a policy is terribly boring. Listed below are typical coverage types offered by auto insurance companies.

Med pay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP) – Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance provide coverage for expenses for surgery, dental work and X-ray expenses. They can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance program or if you are not covered by health insurance. Medical payments and PIP cover you and your occupants and will also cover any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal Injury Protection is not universally available and may carry a deductible

Liability coverage – This coverage protects you from injuries or damage you cause to a person or their property by causing an accident. It protects YOU from legal claims by others, and doesn’t cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You commonly see policy limits of 25/50/25 which means a limit of $25,000 per injured person, a total of $50,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and $25,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability insurance covers claims such as funeral expenses, medical services and loss of income. How much coverage you buy is a decision to put some thought into, but buy as high a limit as you can afford.

Collision coverage – Collision insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from colliding with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision coverage pays for things such as sustaining damage from a pot hole, rolling your car, colliding with a tree, hitting a parking meter and crashing into a ditch. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so consider removing coverage from lower value vehicles. Another option is to raise the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) – Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage protects you and your vehicle when other motorists either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered claims include injuries to you and your family as well as damage to your GMC Suburban.

Due to the fact that many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is a good idea.

Comprehensive insurance – This coverage covers damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You need to pay your deductible first then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive insurance covers things such as damage from getting keyed, falling objects, hitting a deer, damage from a tornado or hurricane and a tree branch falling on your vehicle. The most you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible it’s not worth carrying full coverage.
