What factors determine car insurance premiums?

Insurance rates on a 2007 can be significantly different and are calculated by many factors. Taken into consideration are:

• High performance increases premiums
• How many accidents you have had
• Whether you insure your home with the same company
• Pleasure use vs. commuting use
• Special coverage such as replacement cost
• No claims lowers premiums
• No coverage lapses saves money
• Whether you rent or own your home

One last important factor that will help determine the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. Models that are new have a higher replacement value so the costs to repair may end up costing you more. Conversely, newer vehicles may have options such as anti-lock brakes, adaptive cruise control, and autonomous braking that may help help offset higher rates.

Liability

This can cover damages or injuries you inflict on people or other property by causing an accident. Liability coverage protects against things such as emergency aid, pain and suffering, and medical services. It is cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Coverage for collisions

Collision coverage covers damage to your resulting from a collision with an object or car. You first must pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company. Collision coverage for your 2007 can be pricey, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to choose a higher deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

This coverage covers damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first must pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The highest amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim 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.

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers

This provides protection from other drivers when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Due to the fact that many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. So UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family.

Medical costs insurance

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP kick in for expenses for things like doctor visits, EMT expenses, and X-ray expenses. They can be used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. PIP coverage is not an option in every state and may carry a deductible.
