What factors determine your insurance rates?

Insurance premiums on a 1999 can vary widely and are calculated by many factors. Taken into consideration are:

• High performance increases premiums
• Any accidents you may have
• Multiple policies can save money
• Pleasure use vs. commuting use
• Special coverage such as replacement cost
• Whether or not you have claims
• No coverage lapses saves money
• Whether you rent or own your home

One important consideration that helps determine your rates is the age of the vehicle. Models that are new cost more compared to older models so the costs to repair can inflate annual premiums. Conversely, new models have more advanced features such as an advanced theft deterrent system, adaptive cruise control, active head restraints, and a telematics system which can help offset higher rates.

Liability insurance - This provides protection from damages or injuries you inflict on people or other property in an accident. Liability coverage pays for things such as emergency aid, pain and suffering, and medical services. It is cheap coverage so buy higher limits if possible.

Collision - Collision insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from a collision with an object or car. You will need to pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company. Collision coverage for your 1999 can be pricey, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from lower value vehicles. Drivers also have the option to increase the deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive protection - This coverage covers damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first must pay your deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay. The maximum payout you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the cash value of the vehicle, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle's value consider removing comprehensive coverage.

UM/UIM Coverage - This provides protection from other drivers when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. Since many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, it doesn't take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. So UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Medical expense coverage - Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance kick in for expenses like doctor visits, EMT expenses, and X-ray expenses. They can be used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. PIP coverage is not universally available and may carry a deductible.
