Different people need different insurance coverages

When it comes to buying the best insurance coverage, there really is not a cookie cutter policy. Everyone’s situation is unique.

Here are some questions about coverages that might point out if your situation may require specific advice.

• Am I covered if I crash into my own garage door?
• Will I lose any money if I cancel my policy before it expires?
• Is my babysitter covered when using my vehicle?
• When does my teenage driver need to be added to my policy?
• What is UM/UIM insurance?
• Which is better, split liability limits or combined limits?
• When should I drop full coverage on my 2011 Scion xB?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions then you might want to talk to a licensed agent. If you don’t have a local agent, simply complete this short form.

Insurance coverage considerations

Having a good grasp of a insurance policy aids in choosing which coverages you need for your vehicles. Insurance terms can be confusing and reading a policy is terribly boring.

Medical costs insurance

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage pay for bills for X-ray expenses, nursing services, funeral costs, surgery and doctor visits. They are often used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if you lack health insurance entirely. Medical payments and PIP cover you and your occupants in addition to if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal Injury Protection is not universally available but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

UM/UIM Coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage provides protection when other motorists are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. This coverage pays for medical payments for you and your occupants as well as damage to your Scion xB.

Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage should not be overlooked.

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

Comprehensive insurance covers damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You first must pay your deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive coverage protects against claims such as hitting a bird, damage from getting keyed and falling objects. 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 not worth carrying full coverage.

Collision protection

This covers damage to your xB caused by collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You first must pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision can pay for things like sustaining damage from a pot hole, backing into a parked car and colliding with another moving vehicle. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so you might think about dropping it from older vehicles. Another option is to choose a higher deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Auto liability insurance

Liability coverage will cover damage or injury you incur to people or other property that is your fault. This insurance protects YOU from legal claims by others, and does not provide coverage for your own vehicle damage or injuries.

It consists of three limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You commonly see policy limits of 25/50/25 which stand for $25,000 bodily injury coverage, a total of $50,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and $25,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability coverage protects against claims such as emergency aid, bail bonds, medical expenses, court costs and funeral expenses. How much liability should you purchase? That is up to you, but buy as large an amount as possible.
