What factors impact car insurance premiums?

Insurance rates paid to insure a 2013 can be significantly different based upon several criteria. Taken into consideration are:

• Your driving record
• Better credit means lower rates
• Male drivers pay higher rates
• The deductible you choose
• Your vehicle's safety rating
• Your profession
• Insurance coverage level
• Whether you rent or own your home

One last important factor that helps determine the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. Older models have a reduced actual cash value so the costs to repair will push premiums down. Although new models may have options included like traction control, adaptive headlights, and automatic crash notification that may help help offset higher rates.

Liability

Liability insurance provides protection from damages or injuries you inflict on a person or their property in an accident. Liability coverage protects against things such as emergency aid, pain and suffering, and medical services. Liability insurance is relatively cheap so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Collision protection

Collision insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage from colliding with an object or car. You first must pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to choose a higher deductible in order to get cheaper .

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

This covers damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The highest amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle's value consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Uninsured or underinsured coverage

This provides protection from other motorists when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. Since many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Medical costs insurance

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance provide coverage for expenses for things like doctor visits, EMT expenses, and X-ray expenses. They can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if you are not covered by health insurance. PIP is not universally available and may carry a deductible.
