Feel like you’re a prisoner to overpriced insurance coverage? Don’t sweat it because there are lots of people in the same boat.
You have so many insurance companies to purchase coverage from, and even though it’s nice to have multiple companies, more options can take longer to find the best rates.
It is always a good idea to take a look at other company’s rates at least once a year because rates change regularly.

But consumers need to have an understanding of how the larger insurance companies price insurance differently and take advantage of how the system works.

Companies do not list every discount they offer in a way that’s easy to find, so the list below contains some of the best known in addition to some of the lesser obvious ways to save on car insurance.
One thing to note about discounts is that some credits don’t apply the the whole policy. Most only reduce specific coverage prices like liability and collision coverage. So even though it sounds like adding up those discounts means a free policy, it’s just not the way it works.
A few companies who may offer these discounts are:
When quoting, ask every insurance company which discounts can lower your rates. Discounts may not apply to policyholders everywhere.
When choosing proper insurance coverage for your vehicles, there really is no single plan that fits everyone. Each situation is unique and your policy should reflect that. These are some specific questions might point out if you could use an agent’s help.
If you don’t know the answers to these questions but a few of them apply, you might consider talking to a licensed insurance agent. If you don’t have a local agent, complete this form or you can go here for a list of companies in your area.
Having a good grasp of insurance can help you determine the best coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. The coverage terms in a policy can be difficult to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy. These are typical coverages found on most insurance policies.
Comprehensive insurance coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first have to pay a deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.
Comprehensive insurance covers things like hail damage, a broken windshield, falling objects and rock chips in glass. The most your insurance company will pay is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider removing comprehensive coverage.
This can cover injuries or damage you cause to other’s property or people. It protects YOU against other people’s claims, and doesn’t cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.
Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You commonly see limits of 100/300/100 that translate to a limit of $100,000 per injured person, a limit of $300,000 in injury protection per accident, and property damage coverage for $100,000.
Liability can pay for things such as loss of income, bail bonds and structural damage. How much coverage you buy is your choice, but buy higher limits if possible.
Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance kick in for bills for dental work, prosthetic devices, doctor visits and ambulance fees. They are utilized in addition to your health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. Coverage applies to not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants in addition to getting struck while a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is only offered in select states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage
Your UM/UIM coverage provides protection from other drivers when they are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. It can pay for injuries to you and your family and also any damage incurred to your 1997 Mitsubishi Diamante.
Since many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages should not be overlooked.
Collision insurance will pay to fix damage to your Diamante from colliding with another car or object. You first must pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.
Collision insurance covers claims like crashing into a ditch, backing into a parked car, sideswiping another vehicle and scraping a guard rail. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are older. It’s also possible to increase the deductible to bring the cost down.
