Discounts for affordable insurance rates

Insurance is neither fun to buy or cheap, but there are discounts available that can drop the cost substantially. Larger premium reductions will be automatically applied when you get a quote, but some discounts are required to be requested specifically prior to getting the savings.

• Safety Course Discount – Participating in a safe driver course can save you 5% or more and also improve your driving technique.
• Good Students Pay Less – Maintaining excellent grades can be rewarded with saving of up to 25%. The discount lasts well after school through age 25.
• Safety Restraint Discount – Buckling up and requiring all passengers to buckle up can save 10% or more off the PIP or medical payment premium.
• ABS and Traction Control Discounts – Cars with ABS braking systems or traction control are safer to drive so companies give up to a 10% discount.
• New Vehicle Savings – Insuring a vehicle that is new may earn a small discount since new vehicles are generally safer.
• Driving Data Discount – Policyholders that allow their insurance company to spy on their driving habits by using a telematic data system such as State Farm’s In-Drive may get a rate reduction if they show good driving skills.
• Discount for Multiple Policies – If you combine your home and auto policies and insure them with the same company you may save up to 20% off your total premium.

As a disclaimer on discounts, most discount credits are not given to the entire cost. Most only reduce the cost of specific coverages such as medical payments or collision. Even though it may seem like it’s possible to get free car insurance, nobody gets a free ride. Any qualifying discounts will help lower the premium cost.

Larger insurance companies and a selection of discounts are:

• Esurance policyholders can earn discounts including good driver, multi-policy, multi-car, claim free, paid-in-full, and homeowner.
• The Hartford offers discounts including defensive driver, bundle, good student, driver training, vehicle fuel type, and anti-theft.

You may need specialized auto insurance coverage

When buying coverage, there really is not a perfect coverage plan. Every situation is different and a cookie cutter policy won’t apply. For instance, these questions could help you determine if your insurance needs might need an agent’s assistance.

• Does my policy cover me when driving someone else’s vehicle?
• Should I bundle my homeowners policy with my auto?
• Is business property covered if stolen from my car?
• Am I getting all the discounts available?
• Is my ex-spouse still covered by my policy?
• Can my babysitter drive my car?
• Does coverage extend to Mexico or Canada?
• Do I need special endorsements for business use of my vehicle?

If you’re not sure about those questions but you know they apply to you, you might consider talking to a licensed agent.

Coverage specifics

Understanding the coverages of your insurance policy can help you determine which coverages you need at the best deductibles and correct limits. The coverage terms in a policy can be impossible to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Shown next are the normal coverages offered by insurance companies.

Insurance for medical payments – Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage kick in for short-term medical expenses such as EMT expenses, dental work, prosthetic devices, hospital visits and funeral costs. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if you are not covered by health insurance. Coverage applies to both the driver and occupants as well as getting struck while a pedestrian. Personal Injury Protection is not universally available and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance – This coverage protects you and your vehicle when the “other guys” do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered claims include hospital bills for your injuries and damage to your Mitsubishi Expo.

Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage should not be overlooked. Most of the time your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are similar to your liability insurance amounts.

Liability auto insurance – This provides protection from injuries or damage you cause to a person or their property. It protects YOU against other people’s claims, and does not provide coverage for your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. Your policy might show policy limits of 100/300/100 which stand for $100,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a limit of $300,000 in injury protection per accident, and a total limit of $100,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Some companies may use one number which is a combined single limit that pays claims from the same limit with no separate limits for injury or property damage.

Liability coverage protects against things like funeral expenses, medical services, medical expenses, legal defense fees and loss of income. How much coverage you buy is a personal decision, but buy as much as you can afford.

Collision – This will pay to fix damage to your Expo resulting from a 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 insurance covers claims like scraping a guard rail, driving through your garage door, crashing into a ditch, rolling your car and hitting a mailbox. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from lower value vehicles. You can also choose a higher deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision) – Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first must pay your deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for claims such as damage from a tornado or hurricane, a broken windshield, theft, rock chips in glass and hail damage. The maximum amount you’ll receive from a claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.
