First Step: Get free car insurance quotes

Most of the larger companies like Allstate and Progressive provide prices for coverage direct online.

Take advantage of every car insurance discount

Companies don’t always advertise their entire list of discounts in an easy-to-find place, so we took the time to find both the well known and also the lesser-known discounts that you can inquire about if you buy insurance coverage online.

• Accident Forgiveness Coverage – This one is not really a discount per se, but a handful of insurance companies will turn a blind eye to one accident without the usual rate increase if your claims history is clear prior to being involved in the accident.
• Cautious Driver Discounts – Drivers who avoid accidents may save up to 50% more on Mirage insurance than drivers with accidents.
• Senior Citizens – Seniors could receive a small discount on rates on Mirage insurance.
• Early Payment Discounts – By paying your entire bill at once rather than paying monthly you can avoid monthly service charges.
• Discount for Home Ownership – Owning a house can help you save on car insurance because owning a home requires personal responsibility.
• Online Discount – A handful of companies will discount your bill up to fifty bucks simply for signing on your computer.
• Driver Education Discount – Have your child complete a driver education course if offered at their school.
• Telematics Discount – Drivers that enable companies to spy on driving patterns by installing a telematics device like Allstate’s Drivewise may see discounts if they show good driving skills.
• Good Student – Being a good student can save 20 to 25%. The good student discount can last well after school through age 25.

As a footnote on discounts, some credits don’t apply to the entire policy premium. Most only cut individual premiums such as collision or personal injury protection. Even though it may seem like you could get a free car insurance policy, nobody gets a free ride.

Insurance coverages explained

Having a good grasp of your insurance policy aids in choosing which coverages you need and proper limits and deductibles. Insurance terms can be ambiguous and nobody wants to actually read their policy.

Comprehensive protection – This covers damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You need to pay your deductible first then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive insurance covers things such as theft, damage from a tornado or hurricane and a broken windshield. The maximum payout your insurance company will pay is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Collision coverages – Collision coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage from colliding with another car or object. You have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision insurance covers things like backing into a parked car, colliding with a tree and rolling your car. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to raise the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Liability insurance – Liability coverage protects you from injuries or damage you cause to people or other property that is your fault. This insurance protects YOU from legal claims by others. It does not cover your injuries or vehicle damage.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. You commonly see liability limits of 50/100/50 that translate to $50,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $100,000, and a limit of $50,000 paid for damaged property.

Liability insurance covers claims like medical expenses, legal defense fees, court costs and loss of income. How much coverage you buy is a decision to put some thought into, but buy as much as you can afford.

Uninsured or underinsured coverage – This protects you and your vehicle when the “other guys” either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered losses include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants and damage to your Mitsubishi Mirage.

Since a lot of drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their limits can quickly be used up. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages should not be overlooked.

Medical expense coverage – Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP pay for expenses for rehabilitation expenses, pain medications, hospital visits, prosthetic devices and EMT expenses. They are used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. It covers not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and also covers if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal injury protection coverage is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
