What influences your insurance rates?

Car insurance premiums on a 2014 can vary widely subject to many criteria. Taken into consideration are:

• More performance equals higher cost
• Any accidents you may have
• Home/auto policy bundles save money
• Pleasure use vs. commuting use
• Your birth date
• Having a spouse can save money
• Special coverage such as replacement cost
• Your claim history
• No coverage lapses saves money
• Whether you rent or own your home

An additional factor which can affect is the year of the vehicle. New vehicles have a higher actual cash value than older models so the payout to repair can inflate annual premiums. Conversely, newer vehicles may have safety features such as active head restraints, traction control, and a rollover prevention system which can give discounted rates.

Coverage for liability

2014 liability coverage can cover damages or injuries you inflict on people or other property that is your fault. Liability coverage pays for things such as emergency aid, pain and suffering, and medical services. This coverage is usually fairly inexpensive so you should buy higher limits if possible.

Collision protection

This covers damage to your resulting from a collision with an object or car. You will need to pay your deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage. Collision coverage for your 2014 can be pricey, so consider removing coverage from older vehicles. It's also possible to raise the deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)

This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You need to pay your deductible first and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage. The maximum payout you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle's value is low it's probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Uninsured or underinsured coverage

This protects you and your vehicle from other drivers when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Since a lot of drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, it doesn't take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. So UM/UIM coverage should not be overlooked.

Insurance for medical payments

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for expenses such as doctor visits, EMT expenses, and X-ray expenses. They are used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. Personal injury protection coverage is not an option in every state but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage.
