Parts of your auto insurance policy

Having a good grasp of auto insurance can be of help when determining the best coverages for your vehicles. The terms used in a policy can be difficult to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Listed below are typical coverage types found on most auto insurance policies.

Coverage for medical payments

Med pay and PIP coverage provide coverage for bills like pain medications, prosthetic devices, hospital visits, EMT expenses and funeral costs. They are often used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if you are not covered by health insurance. Medical payments and PIP cover all vehicle occupants in addition to being hit by a car walking across the street. Personal injury protection coverage is not an option in every state and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Collision coverage protection

Collision insurance pays for damage to your Sequoia resulting from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. You have to pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision insurance covers things like colliding with a tree, driving through your garage door, hitting a mailbox, sustaining damage from a pot hole and hitting a parking meter. This coverage can be expensive, so you might think about dropping it from older vehicles. It’s also possible to increase the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Comprehensive coverages

This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You need to pay your deductible first and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for claims like hail damage, damage from a tornado or hurricane and falling objects. The maximum payout you’ll receive from a claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Uninsured and underinsured coverage

This protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other motorists when they do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered claims include hospital bills for your injuries as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Because many people carry very low liability coverage limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is important protection for you and your family.

Liability coverages

This coverage protects you from damage or injury you incur to other people or property in an accident. It protects YOU against other people’s claims, and doesn’t cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. You commonly see liability limits of 25/50/25 which stand for $25,000 bodily injury coverage, a limit of $50,000 in injury protection per accident, and a total limit of $25,000 for damage to vehicles and property.

Liability insurance covers things such as funeral expenses, court costs and legal defense fees. How much liability coverage do you need? That is up to you, but consider buying as much as you can afford.
