Don’t pay full price with these discounts

  • Anti-theft Discount – Vehicles equipped with anti-theft or alarm systems prevent vehicle theft and earn discounts up to 10%.
  • Safety Course Discount – Completing a driver safety course could save 5% or more and easily recoup the cost of the course.
  • Braking Control Discount – Vehicles equipped with ABS or steering control prevent accidents and therefore earn up to a 10% discount.
  • Homeowners Discount – Owning a house can save you money due to the fact that maintaining a home shows financial diligence.
  • Accident Waiver – A few companies allow you one accident without raising rates if your claims history is clear for a certain period of time.
  • Paperwork-free – Some insurance companies give back up to $50 for buying a policy and signing up digitally online.
  • Save with a New Car – Buying coverage on a new vehicle can be considerably cheaper since new cars are generally safer.

Your personal situation dictates your coverage

  • How much can I save by bundling my policies?
  • Am I covered if hit by an uninsured driver?
  • Why does it cost so much to insure a teen driver?
  • What are the best liability limits?
  • Can I rent a car in Mexico?

If you’re not sure about those questions but a few of them apply then you might want to talk to an insurance agent. To find an agent in your area, complete this form or go to this page to view a list of companies.

Educate yourself about car insurance coverages

Learning about specific coverages of car insurance can be of help when determining the best coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. Policy terminology can be difficult to understand and coverage can change by endorsement. These are the usual coverages offered by car insurance companies.

Coverage for medical payments – Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP provide coverage for immediate expenses such as rehabilitation expenses, pain medications and chiropractic care. The coverages can be used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if there is no health insurance coverage. It covers not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and also covers getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Auto liability insurance – Liability insurance provides protection from injuries or damage you cause to other’s property or people by causing an accident. It protects you against other people’s claims, and doesn’t 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 might see limits of 100/300/100 which stand for $100,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a limit of $300,000 in injury protection per accident, and property damage coverage for $100,000. Alternatively, you may have a combined single limit or CSL which combines the three limits into one amount and claims can be made without the split limit restrictions.

Liability coverage pays for claims such as attorney fees, loss of income, court costs, repair bills for other people’s vehicles and repair costs for stationary objects. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is your choice, but buy as high a limit as you can afford.

Comprehensive coverages – This coverage covers damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first must pay your deductible and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive insurance covers things such as vandalism, rock chips in glass, a broken windshield, fire damage and damage from a tornado or hurricane. The most you’ll receive from a claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Uninsured and underinsured coverage – This protects you and your vehicle from other motorists when they are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. Covered losses include medical payments for you and your occupants and damage to your Audi TT.

Due to the fact that many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. So UM/UIM coverage is very important. Frequently your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are similar to your liability insurance amounts.

Collision coverages – This coverage pays for damage to your TT from colliding with another car or object. A deductible applies then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision coverage protects against claims like driving through your garage door, sustaining damage from a pot hole, damaging your car on a curb and crashing into a building. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to increase the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.
