Insurance rates paid to insure a 2002 can be significantly different subject to many criteria. Some of these factors include:

  • Traffic citations increase rates
  • Better credit means lower rates
  • Where you reside can make a big difference
  • Annual mileage can affect rates
  • Male rates may be higher
  • Higher deductibles save money
  • Safety rating of your 2002
  • No claims lowers premiums
  • Having current coverage saves
  • Whether you own your home

One last important factor that will help determine the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. A newer vehicle have a higher replacement value so the payout to repair may end up costing you more. On the flip side, newer vehicles may have options like tire pressure monitors, sideview assist mirrors, active head restraints, and adaptive cruise control that may help provide discounts that lower premiums.

Liability auto insurance

2002 liability coverage can cover damage that occurs to a person or their property by causing an accident. Liability coverage protects against things like legal defense fees, bail bonds, and repair bills for other people's vehicles. This coverage is usually fairly inexpensive so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Coverage for collisions

Collision coverage covers damage to your from colliding with another car or object. You first must pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage. This coverage can be expensive, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Another option is to choose a higher deductible to get cheaper .

Comprehensive (Other than Collision)

This will pay to fix damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You need to pay your deductible first then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The highest amount you'll receive from a claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much it's probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers

Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection when other motorists either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Due to the fact that many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. That's why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is important protection for you and your family.

Medical expense insurance

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for short-term medical expenses for things like nursing services, prosthetic devices, and dental work. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if you lack health insurance entirely. Personal injury protection coverage is not an option in every state but can be used in place of medical payments coverage.
