Learning about specific coverages of auto insurance can help you determine appropriate coverage and the correct deductibles and limits. Auto insurance terms can be ambiguous and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Below you’ll find typical coverages offered by auto insurance companies.
Collision coverage protection
Collision coverage covers damage to your A5 caused by collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.
Collision can pay for claims like rolling your car, hitting a parking meter, colliding with a tree, backing into a parked car and damaging your car on a curb. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Another option is to bump up the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.
Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance
Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage protects you and your vehicle when other motorists do not carry enough liability coverage. This coverage pays for hospital bills for your injuries as well as your vehicle’s damage.
Because many people only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their limits can quickly be used up. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is important protection for you and your family. Normally the UM/UIM limits are similar to your liability insurance amounts.
Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)
This pays for damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. A deductible will apply and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.
Comprehensive insurance covers things such as hitting a deer, theft and falling objects. The maximum payout your auto insurance company will pay is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider removing comprehensive coverage.
Insurance for medical payments
Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage provide coverage for expenses for things like funeral costs, surgery and nursing services. They can be used in conjunction with a health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. They cover you and your occupants in addition to any family member struck as a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not universally available but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage
Liability auto insurance
This will cover damages or injuries you inflict on other people or property. It protects you against claims from other people. Liability doesn’t cover your injuries or vehicle damage.
Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You might see limits of 50/100/50 which means a $50,000 limit per person for injuries, $100,000 for the entire accident, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery. Occasionally you may see one limit called combined single limit (CSL) which combines the three limits into one amount rather than limiting it on a per person basis.
Liability can pay for things such as legal defense fees, loss of income, attorney fees and medical services. How much liability should you purchase? That is up to you, but consider buying higher limits if possible.
