Learning about specific coverages of a insurance policy can help you determine the right coverages at the best deductibles and correct limits. Insurance terms can be difficult to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring.
Medical payments and PIP coverage
Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for short-term medical expenses such as nursing services, ambulance fees, hospital visits and pain medications. They can be used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if you lack health insurance entirely. Coverage applies to all vehicle occupants and will also cover if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP coverage is not universally available and may carry a deductible
Comprehensive auto coverage
This coverage pays for damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first have to pay a deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.
Comprehensive can pay for claims like a tree branch falling on your vehicle, hail damage, fire damage, rock chips in glass and damage from flooding. The maximum payout 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.
UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage
Your UM/UIM coverage 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 as well as your vehicle’s damage.
Since many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is very important.
Collision coverage protection
Collision coverage will pay to fix damage to your GranTurismo Convertible caused by collision with an object or car. You will need to pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.
Collision can pay for things like sideswiping another vehicle, colliding with a tree, scraping a guard rail and colliding with another moving vehicle. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from older vehicles. Drivers also have the option to raise the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.
Auto liability insurance
Liability coverage protects you from damage that occurs to other’s property or people that is your fault. It protects YOU from legal claims by others, and does not provide coverage for your own vehicle damage or injuries.
Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You might see liability limits of 25/50/25 that translate to $25,000 bodily injury coverage, a total of $50,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and a total limit of $25,000 for damage to vehicles and property.
Liability insurance covers things such as bail bonds, structural damage, loss of income and repair costs for stationary objects. How much coverage you buy is your choice, but consider buying as high a limit as you can afford.
