• Should I buy additional glass protection?
• Who is covered when they drive my 1993 Ford E-250?
• Does my policy pay for OEM or aftermarket parts?
• Do I need roadside assistance coverage?
• I don’t drive much so do I pay less?
• Is my trailer covered?
• Should I have a commercial auto policy?
• Am I covered if I drive in a foreign country?
• Do I have coverage for damage caused while driving under the influence?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions but one or more may apply to you, you might consider talking to a licensed agent.

Parts of your car insurance policy

Having a good grasp of your car insurance policy can help you determine which coverages you need and proper limits and deductibles. Policy terminology can be impossible to understand and coverage can change by endorsement. Listed below are typical coverage types found on most car insurance policies.

Collision coverage – Collision insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision coverage protects against claims like scraping a guard rail, sustaining damage from a pot hole, colliding with a tree and damaging your car on a curb. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so you might think about dropping it from lower value vehicles. It’s also possible to choose a higher deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Insurance for medical payments – Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage provide coverage for short-term medical expenses like dental work, rehabilitation expenses and chiropractic care. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance program or if there is no health insurance coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover you and your occupants in addition to any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is not an option in every state but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance – This coverage gives you protection when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. This coverage pays for hospital bills for your injuries and damage to your 1993 Ford E-250.

Due to the fact that many drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage should not be overlooked. Normally your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are set the same as your liablity limits.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision) – This pays to fix your vehicle from damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You need to pay your deductible first and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive can pay for things such as theft, rock chips in glass, a tree branch falling on your vehicle, damage from flooding and vandalism. The highest amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value consider dropping full coverage.

Auto liability – This coverage provides protection from damages or injuries you inflict on other people or property in an accident. This coverage protects you from claims by other people, and doesn’t cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You might see values of 100/300/100 that means you have $100,000 bodily injury coverage, a per accident bodily injury limit of $300,000, and a limit of $100,000 paid for damaged property. Alternatively, you may have a combined single limit or CSL that pays claims from the same limit and claims can be made without the split limit restrictions.

Liability insurance covers things such as attorney fees, repair costs for stationary objects, repair bills for other people’s vehicles, emergency aid and structural damage. How much liability coverage do you need? That is a personal decision, but consider buying as much as you can afford.
