Discounts can really help lower rates

Companies don’t always list every policy discount very clearly, so the list below gives a summary of a few of the more well known as well as some of the hidden credits that may apply to you.

• Discount for Home Ownership – Owning a home can save a few bucks due to the fact that maintaining a home means you have a higher level of financial diligence.
• Anti-lock Brake System – Cars and trucks with ABS and/or traction control are much safer to drive and qualify for as much as a 10% discount.
• College Student – Children who are enrolled in a college that is more than 100 miles from home without a vehicle on campus may be insured at a cheaper rate.
• Accident Free – Drivers who stay claim-free have much lower rates as opposed to drivers who are more careless.
• Full Payment Discount – If you pay your entire premium ahead of time instead of paying each month you may reduce your total bill.
• Federal Government Employee – Having worked for a branch of the government can earn a discount up to 10% for SC 430 insurance depending on your auto insurance provider.
• Defensive Driver Discounts – Taking a course that instructs on driving safety is a good idea and can lower rates depending on where you live.

You can save money using discounts, but some credits don’t apply the the whole policy. The majority will only reduce the cost of specific coverages such as comprehensive or collision. Despite the fact that it seems like you can get free auto insurance, you won’t be that lucky.

A few companies that may have most of the discounts above are:

• Farm Bureau
• Liberty Mutual
• State Farm
• Auto-Owners Insurance
• Geico
• SAFECO

It’s a good idea to ask every company which discounts you qualify for. Some discounts listed above may not apply to policyholders in your area. To locate auto insurance companies with the best discounts, follow this link.

Will just any policy work for me?

When buying adequate coverage for your vehicles, there is no single plan that fits everyone. Everyone’s situation is a little different.

These are some specific questions may help you determine if your situation could use an agent’s help.

• When should my teen driver be added to my policy?
• Does insurance cover tools stolen from my truck?
• Is my vehicle covered by my employer’s policy when using it for work?
• Does having multiple vehicles earn me a discount?
• Should I have combined single limit or split liability limits?
• What if I total my 2006 Lexus SC 430 and owe more than it’s worth?
• Do all my vehicles need collision coverage?

If you’re not sure about those questions but you think they might apply to your situation, you may need to chat with an insurance agent. If you don’t have a local agent, complete this form.

Auto insurance coverage information

Understanding the coverages of your car insurance policy can be of help when determining the best coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. Policy terminology can be impossible to understand and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording.

Coverage for medical expenses

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for bills for funeral costs, prosthetic devices, doctor visits and dental work. They can be used in conjunction with a health insurance program or if you do not have health coverage. Coverage applies to not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and will also cover getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP is not available in all states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Collision protection

Collision insurance pays for damage to your SC 430 resulting from a collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision can pay for things such as colliding with another moving vehicle, driving through your garage door and rolling your car. This coverage can be expensive, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to choose a higher deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers

Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered losses include injuries to you and your family as well as damage to your Lexus SC 430.

Due to the fact that many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage should not be overlooked.

Coverage for liability

Liability insurance provides protection from damage or injury you incur to people or other property that is your fault. This coverage protects you from legal claims by others, and doesn’t cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.

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

Liability coverage pays for things like pain and suffering, court costs, bail bonds, medical expenses and structural damage. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is a decision to put some thought into, but you should buy as large an amount as possible.

Comprehensive car insurance

Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You need to pay your deductible first and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive insurance covers claims like theft, rock chips in glass, a broken windshield and damage from a tornado or hurricane. The highest amount your car insurance company will pay is the ACV or actual cash value, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible consider dropping full coverage.
