Parts of your insurance policy

Learning about specific coverages of your policy can be of help when determining which coverages you need at the best deductibles and correct limits. The coverage terms in a policy can be ambiguous and coverage can change by endorsement.

Coverage for collisions

This coverage will pay to fix damage to your MPV resulting from colliding with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision insurance covers claims like rolling your car, driving through your garage door, hitting a mailbox and hitting a parking meter. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. You can also raise the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Liability auto insurance

Liability insurance can cover injuries or damage you cause to other people or property in an accident. This insurance protects YOU against claims from other people, and doesn’t cover 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. As an example, you may have limits of 100/300/100 that translate to $100,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $300,000, and property damage coverage for $100,000. Another option is a combined limit which combines the three limits into one amount with no separate limits for injury or property damage.

Liability coverage pays for claims such as legal defense fees, funeral expenses, loss of income, pain and suffering and medical services. How much coverage you buy is a personal decision, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as high a limit as you can afford.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance pay for short-term medical expenses for ambulance fees, rehabilitation expenses, X-ray expenses and funeral costs. They are used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. Coverage applies to you and your occupants as well as any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal Injury Protection is not available in all states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Comprehensive coverage

This pays to fix your vehicle from damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first must pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for things such as vandalism, damage from getting keyed, theft and falling objects. The most a insurance company will pay at claim time is the cash value of the vehicle, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage

This provides protection when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered claims include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants and also any damage incurred to your 1996 Mazda MPV.

Since a lot of drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is very important. Frequently these limits do not exceed the liability coverage limits.
