Medical payments and PIP coverage
Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage provide coverage for short-term medical expenses for hospital visits, rehabilitation expenses, doctor visits and funeral costs. They are often used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if you do not have health coverage. It covers all vehicle occupants and also covers being hit by a car walking across the street. Personal injury protection coverage is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
Comprehensive auto coverage
Comprehensive insurance 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 insurance covers claims such as theft, damage from a tornado or hurricane and rock chips in glass. The maximum payout a auto insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider dropping full coverage.
Liability
This provides protection from damages or injuries you inflict on people or other property. This insurance protects YOU from legal claims by others, and doesn’t cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.
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 liability limits of 50/100/50 that translate to a $50,000 limit per person for injuries, $100,000 for the entire accident, and property damage coverage for $50,000. Some companies may use one limit called combined single limit (CSL) which limits claims to one amount and claims can be made without the split limit restrictions.
Liability can pay for claims like funeral expenses, medical services and repair costs for stationary objects. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is up to you, but consider buying higher limits if possible.
Collision insurance
This coverage pays for damage to your Touareg caused by collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You will need to pay your deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.
Collision coverage pays for claims such as rolling your car, crashing into a ditch, colliding with a tree and hitting a parking meter. This coverage can be expensive, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from older vehicles. Another option is to choose a higher deductible to save money on collision insurance.
UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage
Your UM/UIM coverage provides protection when other motorists are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. This coverage pays for hospital bills for your injuries as well as your vehicle’s damage.
Because many people 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. Normally your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are set the same as your liablity limits.
