Learning about specific coverages of insurance can be of help when determining the right coverages for your vehicles. Insurance terms can be confusing and coverage can change by endorsement.
Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance
Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants when the “other guys” are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. Covered losses include injuries to you and your family as well as damage to your 2003 Pontiac Montana.
Due to the fact that 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 is a good idea.
Insurance for medical payments
Med pay and PIP coverage kick in for bills for pain medications, doctor visits and chiropractic care. They can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. They cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and also covers getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP is only offered in select states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
Collision coverage protection
This will pay to fix damage to your Montana resulting from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. You will need to pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.
Collision coverage pays for things like sustaining damage from a pot hole, crashing into a building, driving through your garage door and rolling your car. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. It’s also possible to raise the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.
Liability car insurance
Liability coverage protects you from injuries or damage you cause to people or other property. It protects YOU from claims by other people, and does not provide coverage for 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. Your policy might show policy limits of 100/300/100 that means you have a $100,000 limit per person for injuries, $300,000 for the entire accident, and a total limit of $100,000 for damage to vehicles and property.
Liability can pay for things like pain and suffering, repair bills for other people’s vehicles, legal defense fees, repair costs for stationary objects and attorney fees. How much coverage you buy is your choice, but buy as large an amount as possible.
Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)
Comprehensive insurance coverage pays for damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You need to pay your deductible first and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.
Comprehensive coverage protects against claims like damage from getting keyed, damage from a tornado or hurricane and hitting a bird. The highest amount your insurance company will pay is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.
