Which is the best car insurance?

When it comes to buying proper insurance coverage for your vehicles, there is no one size fits all plan. Every situation is different and your policy should reflect that. These are some specific questions may help you determine if your situation would benefit from professional advice.

  • Is my camper covered by my car insurance policy?
  • What is high-risk coverage and where do I buy it?
  • Do I need to file an SR-22 for a DUI in my state?
  • Am I covered when delivering products for my home-based business?
  • Do I have coverage for damage caused while driving under the influence?
  • Is my teenager covered with friends in the car?

If you’re not sure about those questions but a few of them apply, you might consider talking to a licensed insurance agent. If you don’t have a local agent, complete this form or you can go here for a list of companies in your area.

Parts of your insurance policy

Learning about specific coverages of a insurance policy aids in choosing appropriate coverage for your vehicles. Insurance terms can be confusing and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Listed below are the usual coverages available from insurance companies.

Comprehensive auto coverage – Comprehensive insurance will pay to fix damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first have to pay a deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive insurance covers claims like rock chips in glass, theft, damage from getting keyed, hail damage and hitting a deer. The highest amount 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 probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Collision – This coverage covers damage to your Sierra Classic 2500 resulting from colliding with another car or object. A deductible applies and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision coverage pays for things such as colliding with another moving vehicle, scraping a guard rail, crashing into a building and sustaining damage from a pot hole. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so consider dropping it from older vehicles. It’s also possible to increase the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage – This protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other drivers when they do not carry enough liability coverage. It can pay for hospital bills for your injuries and damage to your GMC Sierra Classic 2500.

Since many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is a good idea. Usually these limits are identical to your policy’s liability coverage.

Liability coverages – Liability insurance can cover damages or injuries you inflict on other’s property or people in an accident. This coverage protects you against claims from other people. Liability doesn’t cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

It consists of three limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. As an example, you may have liability limits of 25/50/25 that means you have a $25,000 limit per person for injuries, $50,000 for the entire accident, and $25,000 of coverage for damaged propery. Some companies may use a combined limit that pays claims from the same limit rather than limiting it on a per person basis.

Liability coverage protects against claims like repair costs for stationary objects, structural damage, attorney fees, funeral expenses and legal defense fees. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is up to you, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as high a limit as you can afford.

Medical payments and PIP coverage – Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance kick in for expenses for things like chiropractic care, prosthetic devices, rehabilitation expenses and pain medications. They are often utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if you lack health insurance entirely. It covers both the driver and occupants as well as if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP coverage is not universally available and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
