Ways to get car insurance rate quotes

There are several ways of comparing rates from local car insurance companies. One of the best ways to find cheaper 2005 Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren rates is to jump online and get quotes. This can be done using a couple different methods.

If you are pressed for time, the simplest way consumers can make multiple comparisons is a comparison rater form like this one (opens in new window). This type of form saves time by eliminating separate forms to each individual car insurance company. One form submission will get you rate comparisons instantly.
A more difficult way to compare prices consists of going to each company’s website and repeat the quote process again and again. For example, we’ll pretend you want to see prices from Farmers, Geico and American Family. To get rate quotes you would need to visit each site and enter your policy data, which can get old fast.

You can use whichever method you prefer to find lower rates, just double check that you are using the same quote information for each quote you get. If the quotes have different deductibles it will be next to impossible to make a fair rate comparison. Just slight variations in coverage limits could mean much higher rates. Just remember that quoting more helps locate a lower rate than you’re paying now. Not every company allows you to get price estimates online, so it’s important to also get price estimates from them, too.

Auto insurance can be complex

When it comes to buying coverage, there really is no one size fits all plan. Everyone’s situation is unique and a cookie cutter policy won’t apply. For instance, these questions can help discover whether your personal situation may require specific advice.

Are there companies who specialize in insuring high-risk drivers?
Should I put collision coverage on all my vehicles?
Does coverage extend to my business vehicle?
Can I pay claims out-of-pocket if I buy high deductibles?
Is my state a no-fault state?
Do I need special endorsements for business use of my vehicle?
Should I bundle my homeowners policy with my auto?
How can I force my company to pay a claim?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions but one or more may apply to you, then you may want to think about talking to an insurance agent. If you want to speak to an agent in your area, complete this form or go to this page to view a list of companies.

Car insurance coverage information

Knowing the specifics of your auto insurance policy aids in choosing the best coverages and proper limits and deductibles. The terms used in a policy can be ambiguous and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording. These are typical coverage types available from auto insurance companies.

Insurance for medical payments

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance provide coverage for bills such as EMT expenses, dental work, ambulance fees, prosthetic devices and surgery. The coverages can be utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if you lack health insurance entirely. It covers you and your occupants and also covers getting struck while a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is not an option in every state but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Coverage for collisions

This covers damage to your SLR McLaren from colliding with an object or car. You will need to pay your deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision can pay for claims like damaging your car on a curb, rolling your car, crashing into a building, hitting a parking meter and crashing into a ditch. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so you might think about dropping it from lower value vehicles. Drivers also have the option to increase the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)

Comprehensive insurance will pay to fix damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You need to pay your deductible first then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive coverage pays for things like damage from getting keyed, a broken windshield, fire damage, theft and damage from flooding. The maximum amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the cash value of the vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Auto liability

This provides protection from damages or injuries you inflict on other people or property in an accident. This coverage protects you against claims from other people, 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 values of 25/50/25 that means you have $25,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a limit of $50,000 in injury protection per accident, and property damage coverage for $25,000. Alternatively, you may have one number which is a combined single limit that pays claims from the same limit without having the split limit caps.

Liability coverage protects against things like attorney fees, structural damage, medical expenses, medical services and pain and suffering. How much liability coverage do you need? That is your choice, but buy as much as you can afford.

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance

This protects you and your vehicle when the “other guys” either have no liability insurance or not enough. This coverage pays for hospital bills for your injuries and also any damage incurred to your Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren.

Because many people carry very low liability coverage limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is a good idea. Frequently these coverages are identical to your policy’s liability coverage.
