Car insurance coverages for an Oldsmobile Toronado

Knowing the specifics of your insurance policy can help you determine the right coverages for your vehicles. The coverage terms in a policy can be difficult to understand and coverage can change by endorsement. Shown next are the usual coverages available from insurance companies.

Collision coverages – This coverage covers damage to your Toronado resulting from a collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You first must pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision coverage pays for things like crashing into a ditch, hitting a mailbox and backing into a parked car. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so you might think about dropping it from older vehicles. Another option is to increase the deductible to bring the cost down.

Coverage for liability – This protects you from damage that occurs to other’s property or people that is your fault. This coverage protects you from claims by other people. It does not cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

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 commonly see values of 25/50/25 which stand for $25,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a total of $50,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and $25,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability can pay for things such as attorney fees, emergency aid, pain and suffering, structural damage and repair bills for other people’s vehicles. How much liability should you purchase? That is a decision to put some thought into, but you should buy as large an amount as possible.

Medical expense coverage – Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance pay for short-term medical expenses such as rehabilitation expenses, EMT expenses, chiropractic care and prosthetic devices. The coverages can be utilized in addition to your health insurance program or if you are not covered by health insurance. They cover all vehicle occupants and will also cover being hit by a car walking across the street. PIP is not an option in every state but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Uninsured or underinsured coverage – This gives you protection when the “other guys” do not carry enough liability coverage. It can pay for medical payments for you and your occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Due to the fact that many drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, their limits can quickly be used up. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is very important.

Comprehensive protection – This coverage will pay to fix damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You first have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against things such as fire damage, rock chips in glass and vandalism. The most you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the cash value of the vehicle, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible it’s not worth carrying full coverage.
