Are you tired of trying to scrape together enough money to insure your Chevy every month? Your situation is no different than most other vehicle owners.
You have multiple insurers to insure vehicles with, and though it is a good thing to be able to choose, lots of choices makes it harder to find the lowest cost provider.
Finding affordable coverage is quite easy. Just about everyone who is shopping for insurance will be able to find lower rates. Nevertheless, drivers must learn how the larger insurance companies market insurance on the web and take advantage of how the system works.
Some providers don’t necessarily list every discount in a way that’s easy to find, so below is a list a few of the more well known as well as the least known credits that you can use to lower your rates. If you aren’t receiving every discount possible, you could be paying more than you need to.
Consumers should know that most discount credits are not given to your bottom line cost. Most only apply to individual premiums such as comprehensive or collision. So despite the fact that it appears you would end up receiving a 100% discount, company stockholders wouldn’t be very happy.
Some of the insurance companies that may include some of the above discounts include:
If you want the cheapest insurance quotes, ask each company which discounts can lower your rates. All car insurance discounts may not apply to policyholders in your area. For a list of providers who offer cheap insurance coverage quotes, click here.
An important part of buying insurance is that you know the rating factors that go into determining your car insurance rates. When you understand what determines premiums, this enables you to make decisions that will entitle you to lower car insurance prices. Many different elements are used when you get your auto insurance bill. A few of the factors are predictable like a motor vehicle report, but other criteria are more obscure such as your credit history or your financial responsibility.
When choosing coverage, there really is not a “best” method to buy coverage. Everyone’s situation is unique so your insurance needs to address that. Here are some questions about coverages that could help you determine if you might need an agent’s assistance.
If you’re not sure about those questions, then you may want to think about talking 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.
Learning about specific coverages of insurance aids in choosing the right coverages for your vehicles. The terms used in a policy can be ambiguous and coverage can change by endorsement. Listed below are the usual coverages found on most insurance policies.
Auto liability
Liability insurance will cover damages or injuries you inflict on a person or their property. It protects you from legal claims by others. Liability doesn’t cover your injuries or vehicle damage.
It consists of three limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. Your policy might show values of 25/50/25 which stand for a limit of $25,000 per injured person, $50,000 for the entire accident, and a limit of $25,000 paid for damaged property.
Liability insurance covers claims such as loss of income, court costs and medical expenses. How much liability should you purchase? That is up to you, but buy as much as you can afford.
Comprehensive insurance
Comprehensive insurance coverage will pay to fix damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You need to pay your deductible first then your comprehensive coverage will pay.
Comprehensive can pay for claims such as theft, hitting a deer, falling objects, hitting a bird and damage from a tornado or hurricane. The maximum payout 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 consider dropping full coverage.
Collision protection
Collision coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from a collision with another car or object. A deductible applies then your collision coverage will kick in.
Collision coverage pays for things like sideswiping another vehicle, scraping a guard rail and rolling your car. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are older. You can also increase the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.
Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM)
This coverage provides protection from other drivers when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered claims include injuries to you and your family and also any damage incurred to your Chevy Corsica.
Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. So UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family.
Med pay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP)
Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP provide coverage for bills like EMT expenses, pain medications, dental work, nursing services and ambulance fees. They can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. They cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and also covers any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is not universally available and may carry a deductible
As you shop your coverage around, you should never buy poor coverage just to save money. Too many times, an insured cut full coverage and learned later they didn’t have enough coverage. Your aim should be to buy enough coverage at the best price while still protecting your assets.
