Car insurance quotes and discounts

Car insurance is not cheap, but you may be missing some discounts to cut the cost considerably. Some discounts apply automatically at the time of purchase, but a few must be inquired about before you get the savings. If you do not double check each discount possible, you are paying more than you should be.

  • Full Payment Discount – If paying your policy premium upfront as opposed to paying monthly you can avoid monthly service charges.
  • Theft Deterent System – Cars and trucks that have factory anti-theft systems are stolen with less frequency and therefore earn up to a 10% discount.
  • Passive Restraint Discount – Vehicles equipped with air bags can get savings up to 30%.
  • Distant College Student Discount – Children who are attending college and do not have access to a covered vehicle may be insured at a cheaper rate.
  • Student Discount for Driver Training – Require your teen driver to participate in a local driver’s education class in school.
  • Early Switch Discount – A few companies allow discounts for renewing your policy prior to your current policy expiring. You may see this discount when you get auto insurance quotes online.
  • Telematics Devices – Drivers who agree to allow driving data submission to scrutinize driving patterns by using a small device installed in their vehicle such as Snapshot from Progressive or Drivewise from Allstate might get better premium rates if they are good drivers.
  • First Accident Forgiveness – This one isn’t a discount, but a handful of insurance companies will turn a blind eye to one accident before raising your premiums with the catch being you have to be claim-free for a certain period of time.
  • Multi-Vehicle Discounts – Buying coverage for several vehicles with the same company can reduce rates for all insured vehicles.

One last thing about discounts, some of the credits will not apply to the overall cost of the policy. Most only cut specific coverage prices like liability and collision coverage. So even though you would think you would end up receiving a 100% discount, that’s just not realistic.

Some companies that may have some of the above discounts may include but are not limited to:

Situations that may require an agent’s advice

When it comes to buying adequate coverage, there isn’t really a best way to insure your cars. Coverage needs to be tailored to your specific needs.

Here are some questions about coverages that can aid in determining if your insurance needs could use an agent’s help.

  • Can my teen driver be rated on a liability-only vehicle?
  • Do I have coverage when making deliveries for my home business?
  • Am I covered by my employer’s commercial auto policy when driving my personal car for business?
  • Can I get a multi-policy discount for packaging my home and auto coverage?
  • Is my babysitter covered when using my vehicle?
  • Will I lose any money if I cancel my policy before it expires?
  • Do I need motorclub coverage?
  • Do I need more liability coverage?
  • Should I get collision insurance on every vehicle?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions, you may need to chat with a licensed agent. To find lower rates from a local agent, simply complete this short form. It only takes a few minutes and can help protect your family.

Insurance coverage considerations

Learning about specific coverages of your insurance policy aids in choosing the best coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. Policy terminology can be difficult to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy.

Liability coverage – Liability coverage can cover damage that occurs to people or other property. This insurance protects YOU against other people’s claims, and does not provide coverage for your own vehicle damage or injuries.

It consists of three limits, bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. You might see policy limits of 50/100/50 which means a limit of $50,000 per injured person, a limit of $100,000 in injury protection per accident, and a limit of $50,000 paid for damaged property. Another option is a combined single limit or CSL which limits claims to one amount and claims can be made without the split limit restrictions.

Liability coverage pays for claims such as structural damage, funeral expenses, medical services, attorney fees and emergency aid. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is your choice, but buy as high a limit as you can afford.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) – Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage provides protection when other motorists are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. It can pay for injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as damage to your Jaguar XF.

Since many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is a good idea. Most of the time your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are identical to your policy’s liability coverage.

Med pay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP) – Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance reimburse you for immediate expenses for EMT expenses, hospital visits and ambulance fees. They are used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover both the driver and occupants and will also cover being hit by a car walking across the street. PIP coverage is not an option in every state and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Collision – This coverage pays for damage to your XF resulting from a collision with another car or object. A deductible applies then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision coverage protects against claims like hitting a parking meter, backing into a parked car, sideswiping another vehicle and sustaining damage from a pot hole. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are older. You can also increase the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive insurance – This coverage covers damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive insurance covers claims like a broken windshield, a tree branch falling on your vehicle, hitting a deer, damage from a tornado or hurricane and hail damage. The maximum amount you’ll receive from a claim is the cash value of the vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s not worth carrying full coverage.
