For instance, these questions might help in determining whether you will benefit from professional help.

• Am I covered if I break a side mirror?
• Who is covered by my policy?
• Is my trailer covered?
• How high should my medical payments coverage be?
• Do I need rental car coverage?
• Will my insurance pay for OEM parts?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions, then you may want to think about talking to an insurance agent. If you want to speak to an agent in your area, fill out this quick form. It only takes a few minutes and can provide invaluable advice.

Auto insurance coverage options for a Lexus SC 430

Understanding the coverages of a auto insurance policy can help you determine the best coverages at the best deductibles and correct limits. Auto insurance terms can be impossible to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring.

Collision coverages – This coverage covers damage to your SC 430 resulting from a collision with another car or object. You will need to pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision coverage pays for things such as hitting a parking meter, sustaining damage from a pot hole, hitting a mailbox and crashing into a building. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so you might think about dropping it from lower value vehicles. Another option is to bump up the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive protection – Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You first have to pay a deductible and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against claims like hitting a deer, falling objects, rock chips in glass and a broken windshield. The maximum amount you’ll receive from a claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible consider dropping full coverage.

Uninsured or underinsured coverage – This protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other motorists when they do not carry enough liability coverage. It can pay for medical payments for you and your occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. So UM/UIM coverage is a good idea. Frequently the UM/UIM limits are similar to your liability insurance amounts.

Auto liability – This coverage protects you from damage or injury you incur to other’s property or people in an accident. It protects YOU from claims by other people, and does not provide coverage for your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Coverage consists of three different limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. Your policy might show limits of 100/300/100 that translate to a $100,000 limit per person for injuries, $300,000 for the entire accident, and a limit of $100,000 paid for damaged property. Occasionally you may see one limit called combined single limit (CSL) that pays claims from the same limit and claims can be made without the split limit restrictions.

Liability can pay for claims such as loss of income, funeral expenses, bail bonds and court costs. How much coverage you buy is up to you, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as much as you can afford.

Medical expense coverage – Med pay and PIP coverage pay for expenses for things like chiropractic care, prosthetic devices, surgery, doctor visits and hospital visits. The coverages can be used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants as well as any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal Injury Protection is not universally available and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
