Auto insurance coverages

Knowing the specifics of your policy helps when choosing the right coverages and proper limits and deductibles. Policy terminology can be difficult to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Listed below are typical coverages available from insurance companies.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision) – This coverage will pay to fix damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first must pay your deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive insurance covers claims like a tree branch falling on your vehicle, falling objects, damage from a tornado or hurricane and damage from flooding. The maximum payout a insurance company will pay at claim time is the ACV or actual cash value, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Collision coverages – This coverage pays for damage to your LeSabre resulting from a collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. A deductible applies and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision coverage protects against claims such as crashing into a building, backing into a parked car, scraping a guard rail, hitting a parking meter and damaging your car on a curb. This coverage can be expensive, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are older. Another option is to bump up the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Insurance for medical payments – Med pay and PIP coverage reimburse you for short-term medical expenses for hospital visits, prosthetic devices, pain medications and dental work. They are utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if you are not covered by health insurance. Medical payments and PIP cover you and your occupants as well as if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal Injury Protection is not available in all states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Liability car insurance – This coverage will cover damage or injury you incur to people or other property. It protects YOU from legal claims by others. It does not cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. You commonly see limits of 50/100/50 that means you have a $50,000 limit per person for injuries, $100,000 for the entire accident, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability coverage pays for claims such as pain and suffering, attorney fees, legal defense fees, repair bills for other people’s vehicles and repair costs for stationary objects. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is up to you, but buy as high a limit as you can afford.

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance – This coverage provides protection from other motorists when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. It can pay for injuries to you and your family and damage to your Buick LeSabre.

Due to the fact that many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is important protection for you and your family.

Quote often and quote early

Some companies do not offer rates over the internet and many times these smaller providers work with independent insurance agents. Cost effective 1992 Buick LeSabre insurance is possible online as well as from independent agents, so you need to compare both to have the best chance of lowering rates.

When you buy insurance coverage online, don’t be tempted to reduce coverage to reduce premium. In too many instances, an accident victim reduced full coverage and found out when filing a claim that their decision to reduce coverage ended up costing them more. Your aim should be to buy a smart amount of coverage for the lowest cost while not skimping on critical coverages.
