Auto insurance specifics

Knowing the specifics of auto insurance helps when choosing the best coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. Policy terminology can be impossible to understand and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording.

Comprehensive coverage – This coverage covers damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive insurance covers claims such as damage from flooding, hitting a deer, a tree branch falling on your vehicle, a broken windshield and theft. The most a auto insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider dropping full coverage.

Medical payments coverage and PIP – Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP kick in for immediate expenses such as X-ray expenses, ambulance fees, hospital visits, doctor visits and rehabilitation expenses. The coverages can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance plan or if you do not have health coverage. It covers all vehicle occupants and also covers getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage – This coverage gives you protection when the “other guys” either have no liability insurance or not enough. It can pay for medical payments for you and your occupants and also any damage incurred to your 2004 Acura TL.

Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. So UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family.

Liability coverages – This can cover injuries or damage you cause to other people or property by causing an accident. It protects you against other people’s claims. Liability doesn’t cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

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 means you have a limit of $25,000 per injured person, a per accident bodily injury limit of $50,000, and a total limit of $25,000 for damage to vehicles and property.

Liability can pay for claims such as court costs, attorney fees, repair costs for stationary objects and emergency aid. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is a decision to put some thought into, but buy as large an amount as possible.

Collision coverages – This will pay to fix damage to your TL from colliding with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision coverage protects against things like colliding with a tree, sustaining damage from a pot hole, damaging your car on a curb and sideswiping another vehicle. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are older. Drivers also have the option to bump up the deductible to bring the cost down.
