Compare car insurance rate quotes

There are a lot of ways to shop for car insurance, but one way is easier and takes less work. You could waste time talking to insurance companies in your area, or you can utilize online quoting to accomplish the same thing much quicker.

All the larger companies are enrolled in a marketplace that enables customers to submit their information once, and each participating company then returns a price quote based on that data. This system prevents you from having to do repetitive form submissions to each individual car insurance company.

Tailor your auto insurance coverage to you

When buying the right insurance coverage for your vehicles, there really is not a “perfect” insurance plan. Your needs are not the same as everyone else’s.

These are some specific questions might point out if your insurance needs will benefit from professional help.

• Does my insurance cover my expensive audio equipment?
• Is my teen driver covered when they drive my company car?
• Am I covered if I hit a deer?
• Is my trailer covered?
• How many claims can I have before being cancelled?
• How much can I save by bundling my policies?
• Should I buy more coverage than the required minimum liability coverage?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions but you know they apply to you then you might want to talk to a licensed insurance agent. If you want to speak to an agent in your area, simply complete this short form. It is quick, free and may give you better protection.

Insurance coverage basics

Knowing the specifics of your policy can be of help when determining the best coverages for your vehicles. The coverage terms in a policy can be confusing and coverage can change by endorsement.

Coverage for collisions

Collision insurance pays for damage to your MKS caused by collision with another car or object. You have to pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision insurance covers things such as scraping a guard rail, sustaining damage from a pot hole, sideswiping another vehicle and rolling your car. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to increase the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Liability

This will cover damage or injury you incur to other’s property or people that is your fault. It protects YOU from legal claims by others, and doesn’t cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

It consists of three limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You commonly see limits of 100/300/100 that means you have a limit of $100,000 per injured person, $300,000 for the entire accident, and a limit of $100,000 paid for damaged property. Occasionally you may see a combined limit that pays claims from the same limit without having the split limit caps.

Liability coverage pays for things like court costs, structural damage, loss of income and attorney fees. How much coverage you buy is a decision to put some thought into, but you should buy as much as you can afford.

Coverage for medical expenses

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance reimburse you for expenses for nursing services, pain medications and X-ray expenses. They can be used in conjunction with a health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. Coverage applies to both the driver and occupants as well as any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is only offered in select states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Comprehensive insurance

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

Comprehensive can pay for claims like hitting a bird, a broken windshield and a tree branch falling on your vehicle. The highest amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider dropping full coverage.

Coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers

This coverage provides protection when the “other guys” do not carry enough liability coverage. This coverage pays for hospital bills for your injuries and also any damage incurred to your Lincoln MKS.

Since many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family. Normally your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are similar to your liability insurance amounts.
