Tailor your coverage to you

When choosing proper insurance coverage for your personal vehicles, there is no “best” method to buy coverage. Each situation is unique.

For example, these questions may help you determine whether your personal situation might need an agent’s assistance.

• Does coverage extend to my business vehicle?
• When does my teenage driver need to be added to my policy?
• Can I get a multi-policy discount?
• Do I need to file an SR-22 for a DUI in my state?
• Can my teen drive my company car?
• What is the difference between comprehensive and collision coverage?
• When should I not file a claim?
• Why do I only qualify for high-risk insurance?
• Does my policy cover me when driving someone else’s vehicle?
• Am I better off with higher deductibles on my 2011 Volvo XC70?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions but you think they might apply to your situation, you might consider talking to a licensed agent. To find an agent in your area, fill out this quick form. It is quick, free and can provide invaluable advice.

Insurance coverages explained

Having a good grasp of your policy helps when choosing which coverages you need and the correct deductibles and limits. Insurance terms can be ambiguous and coverage can change by endorsement.

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance – Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants from other drivers when they do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered losses include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as damage to your Volvo XC70.

Since a lot of drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is very important. Usually the UM/UIM limits are set the same as your liablity limits.

Liability car insurance – This provides protection from damage or injury you incur to other’s property or people that is your fault. It protects you from claims by other people. It does not cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You commonly see liability limits of 25/50/25 which stand for $25,000 bodily injury coverage, a limit of $50,000 in injury protection per accident, and a total limit of $25,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Alternatively, you may have a combined single limit or CSL that pays claims from the same limit rather than limiting it on a per person basis.

Liability can pay for claims like repair bills for other people’s vehicles, medical expenses, medical services, pain and suffering and loss of income. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is a decision to put some thought into, but consider buying as much as you can afford.

Collision – Collision coverage covers damage to your XC70 caused by collision with an object or car. You first must pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision coverage protects against claims such as crashing into a building, rolling your car, crashing into a ditch and hitting a parking meter. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so consider removing coverage from lower value vehicles. Drivers also have the option to choose a higher deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision) – Comprehensive insurance covers damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against things such as falling objects, hitting a deer, theft, damage from flooding and rock chips in glass. The maximum amount your insurance company will pay is the actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value consider dropping full coverage.

Insurance for medical payments – Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for bills for chiropractic care, funeral costs, EMT expenses, prosthetic devices and ambulance fees. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance program or if you are not covered by health insurance. Coverage applies to all vehicle occupants in addition to getting struck while a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is only offered in select states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
