Knowing the specifics of your policy aids in choosing the right coverages at the best deductibles and correct limits. The coverage terms in a policy can be difficult to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring. Listed below are typical coverage types available from auto insurance companies.
Coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers – This coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered losses include injuries to you and your family and also any damage incurred to your Oldsmobile Bravada.
Since many drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, their limits can quickly be used up. So UM/UIM coverage should not be overlooked.
Collision coverages – This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from a collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.
Collision insurance covers things like hitting a parking meter, scraping a guard rail, rolling your car, hitting a mailbox and crashing into a building. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from lower value vehicles. You can also bump up the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.
Coverage for medical expenses – Med pay and PIP coverage kick in for immediate expenses for X-ray expenses, prosthetic devices, EMT expenses, doctor visits and hospital visits. They are used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. They cover you and your occupants and also covers getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP is only offered in select states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
Comprehensive auto insurance – Comprehensive insurance coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage that is not covered by collision coverage. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.
Comprehensive insurance covers claims like theft, fire damage, damage from flooding and damage from getting keyed. The most you’ll receive from a claim is the cash value of the vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s not worth carrying full coverage.
Liability – Liability coverage protects you from damage or injury you incur to other’s property or people by causing 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 liability limits of 50/100/50 that means you have a limit of $50,000 per injured person, $100,000 for the entire accident, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery.
Liability coverage protects against things like pain and suffering, bail bonds, attorney fees and repair bills for other people’s vehicles. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is up to you, but buy as large an amount as possible.

Here’s my info. From Tulsa, OK. Quoted rates from Allstate, AIG Insurance, and Encompass for my Bravada and I’m now saving $16 a month. Left Farmers to switch. I have a teen driver too.

Cheaper not always better. I’m in Fargo, North Dakota. Not sure of all the companies but I ended up saving about $20 each month. Was with Esurance. I have a teen driver too.

Mine is so expensive. Checking in from Billings, MT. Compared rates from a lot of places. Saved darn near $20 a month. Allstate was the most affordable for me. I think I’ll get rid of full coverage next time.
