Finding Insurance Coverage

When shopping for insurance coverage there are multiple ways to get quotes from insurance coverage companies in your area. The best method to compare 1992 BMW 3 Series insurance prices consists of obtaining rate quotes online. This is very easy and can be done using a couple different methods.

The recommended way to find low rates is to use a rate comparison form click to view form in new window. This type of form eliminates the need for repetitive form entry to each individual insurance coverage company. Taking the time to complete one form compares rates from many national carriers.

A slightly less efficient method to compare rate quotes is to manually visit the website of each company and request a quote. For example, we’ll assume you want rates from Progressive, Safeco and Liberty Mutual. To find out each rate you need to go to every website and enter your policy data, which is why the first method is quicker.

The internet makes this process obsolete unless you prefer the personal advice of a licensed agent. It is possible to comparison shop online but still have the advice of a local agent and we’ll cover that in a bit.

Which method you use is up to you, but double check that you are using the exact same coverage information for every company.

Information about specific coverages

Learning about specific coverages of your policy helps when choosing the right coverages at the best deductibles and correct limits. Policy terminology can be impossible to understand and coverage can change by endorsement. These are the usual coverages offered by car insurance companies.

Coverage for collisions

Collision insurance covers damage to your 3 Series from colliding with an object or car. You have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision coverage pays for claims like backing into a parked car, colliding with a tree and scraping a guard rail. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from lower value vehicles. Another option is to raise the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance

This protects you and your vehicle from other motorists when they do not carry enough liability coverage. It can pay for injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as damage to your BMW 3 Series.

Because many people have only the minimum liability required by law, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages should not be overlooked.

Insurance for medical payments

Med pay and PIP coverage pay for immediate expenses for prosthetic devices, funeral costs and doctor visits. They are utilized in addition to your health insurance plan or if you do not have health coverage. Coverage applies to not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants in addition to if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal Injury Protection is not universally available but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Auto liability insurance

This coverage protects you from injuries or damage you cause to a person or their property by causing an accident. It protects YOU against other people’s claims. Liability 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. You might see values of 100/300/100 which means a limit of $100,000 per injured person, $300,000 for the entire accident, and $100,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability insurance covers claims such as attorney fees, loss of income, legal defense fees and medical expenses. How much liability coverage do you need? That is up to you, but buy as large an amount as possible.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)

This coverage pays for damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You need to pay your deductible first then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for things like a tree branch falling on your vehicle, falling objects, hail damage and a broken windshield. The maximum amount your car insurance company will pay is the market value of your vehicle, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.
