Collision and comprehensive (other than collision) coverages
Collision and Comprehensive (other than collision) coverages pay for damage to your automobile. You can purchase both of these coverages or just comprehensive for each vehicle you own. If you have an auto loan you’ll likely be required to purchase both.
- Collision coverage insures you against damage to your vehicle caused during an accident.
- Comprehensive (other than collision) coverage insures you against all other physical damage to your car caused by such events as fire, theft, flood and vandalism.
Collision and comprehensive (other than collision) coverage usually includes a deductible, which typically range from $100 to $1,000. If your car is damaged, the Insurance company pays only for the damage in excess of the deductible you selected. The higher the deductible, the lower the premium.
Liability coverage
Liability coverage pays for injuries you cause to other people and damage you cause to other people’s property when you are at fault in an automobile accident.
Personal Injury Protection (PIP)
PIP coverage pays medical expenses (up to a specified dollar limit of either $10,000 or $35,000) for you and passengers of your car who are injured in an automobile accident, no matter who is at fault. PIP also pays additional costs including time missed from work, daily amount if you’re not able to perform chores around the house and some funeral benefits. Refer to your policy or discuss with our agents for further details.
Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage
This coverage pays if you are injured by a person who is completely uninsured or doesn’t have enough liability insurance to cover your injuries. It also covers you if you are in an accident with a hit-and-run driver.
Optional coverage
Optional or special coverage includes extras such as towing, rental car reimbursement, and roadside assistance. None of these coverages are required but are certainly make the claim process go smoother.
How much do I need?
Choosing the appropriate level of auto insurance coverage depends on a number of factors including assets you must protect (liability coverage), value of your vehicle (collision and comprehensive), the amount of money you can afford to pay out-of-pocket (deductibles) and your tolerance for risk.
Frequently Asked Questions about Auto Insurance
Who has the cheapest auto insurance?
No one company always offers the cheapest auto insurance. You should shop your auto insurance with an independent agent so they can quote you multiple companies at once so then you can compare coverage and pricing that suits your needs and budget.
What insurance is required for a car?
Typically, liability insurance is the only required insurance coverage. Beyond that, if you have a loan on your vehicle your lender will require you to carry full coverage on the vehicle until it is paid off.
Who has the best auto insurance?
The best auto insurance is the company that has the best coverage and pricing for your situation. No one company offers “the best car insurance.” It is purely dependent on your needs, budget, and coverage requirements.
