Parts of your auto insurance policy

Knowing the specifics of your auto insurance policy can help you determine which coverages you need and proper limits and deductibles. Auto insurance terms can be impossible to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring. Below you’ll find typical coverage types offered by auto insurance companies.

Medical costs insurance

Med pay and PIP coverage pay for short-term medical expenses like X-ray expenses, rehabilitation expenses and hospital visits. They can be utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. Coverage applies to you and your occupants in addition to if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP coverage is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Auto collision coverage

This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from a collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. A deductible applies then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company.

Collision can pay for things such as colliding with another moving vehicle, sideswiping another vehicle, rolling your car and backing into a parked car. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so you might think about dropping it from older vehicles. Another option is to increase the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

This coverage will pay to fix damage that is not covered by collision coverage. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for things like falling objects, a broken windshield, a tree branch falling on your vehicle and hitting a bird. The most you’ll receive from a claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Liability coverages

This can cover damages or injuries you inflict on other people or property. This insurance protects YOU from legal claims by others. Liability doesn’t cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Liability coverage has three limits: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You commonly see values of 25/50/25 which stand for a $25,000 limit per person for injuries, a total of $50,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and a limit of $25,000 paid for damaged property.

Liability can pay for things such as loss of income, legal defense fees, medical expenses, structural damage and repair bills for other people’s vehicles. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is a decision to put some thought into, but consider buying higher limits if possible.

UM/UIM Coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage provides protection from other motorists when they are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. Covered claims include injuries to you and your family and also any damage incurred to your Cadillac Escalade EXT.

Since many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is very important.
