Learning about specific coverages of your insurance policy aids in choosing which coverages you need and proper limits and deductibles. The terms used in a policy can be impossible to understand and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording.
Coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers – Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. This coverage pays for hospital bills for your injuries as well as damage to your Chevy Lumina Minivan.
Since a lot of drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their limits can quickly be used up. So UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family.
Liability car insurance – This will cover damage or injury you incur to a person or their property by causing an accident. This coverage protects you from legal claims by others, and doesn’t cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.
It consists of three limits, bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. As an example, you may have liability limits of 100/300/100 which means a limit of $100,000 per injured person, a per accident bodily injury limit of $300,000, and a limit of $100,000 paid for damaged property.
Liability can pay for claims such as court costs, loss of income, medical services and repair costs for stationary objects. How much coverage you buy is up to you, but buy higher limits if possible.
Coverage for medical expenses – Med pay and PIP coverage provide coverage for bills like funeral costs, pain medications, dental work and doctor visits. They are often used in conjunction with a health insurance program or if you are not covered by health insurance. Coverage applies to not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants in addition to any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal Injury Protection is not an option in every state and may carry a deductible
Comprehensive insurance – Comprehensive insurance will pay to fix damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You need to pay your deductible first and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.
Comprehensive can pay for things such as damage from flooding, damage from a tornado or hurricane and falling objects. The highest amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.
Collision coverages – Collision coverage covers damage to your Lumina Minivan resulting from a collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You have to pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.
Collision coverage pays for claims like driving through your garage door, hitting a mailbox, sideswiping another vehicle, rolling your car and hitting a parking meter. This coverage can be expensive, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Another option is to raise the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.
