  • Am I covered if I hit a deer?
  • Why is insurance for a teen driver so high?

  • Are rock chip repairs covered?
  • Should I get collision insurance on every vehicle?

Auto insurance coverages 101

Learning about specific coverages of auto insurance helps when choosing the best coverages for your vehicles. The terms used in a policy can be confusing and coverage can change by endorsement. Below you’ll find the usual coverages found on most auto insurance policies.

Collision coverage

Collision insurance covers damage to your Titan resulting from colliding with an object or car. A deductible applies and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision coverage protects against claims like sustaining damage from a pot hole, damaging your car on a curb and crashing into a building. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so consider dropping it from older vehicles. Drivers also have the option to increase the deductible to bring the cost down.

Medical expense coverage

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP kick in for bills such as surgery, doctor visits, dental work and chiropractic care. The coverages can be utilized in addition to your health insurance program or if there is no health insurance coverage. It covers not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants as well as getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP coverage is only offered in select states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Comprehensive protection

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

Comprehensive coverage pays for things such as damage from a tornado or hurricane, hitting a bird, damage from flooding and a broken windshield. The maximum amount your auto insurance company will pay is the actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Uninsured or underinsured coverage

This provides protection from other drivers when they are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. This coverage pays for hospital bills for your injuries and damage to your 2008 Nissan Titan.

Since many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is a good idea. Frequently these limits are similar to your liability insurance amounts.

Liability coverages

Liability coverage provides protection from damage or injury you incur to other’s property or people by causing an accident. This coverage protects you against claims from other people. Liability doesn’t cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. Your policy might show policy limits of 50/100/50 that means you have a limit of $50,000 per injured person, a limit of $100,000 in injury protection per accident, and a limit of $50,000 paid for damaged property. Occasionally you may see a combined single limit or CSL that pays claims from the same limit with no separate limits for injury or property damage.

Liability coverage pays for claims like repair bills for other people’s vehicles, funeral expenses, emergency aid, bail bonds and structural damage. How much liability should you purchase? That is up to you, but you should buy as large an amount as possible.
