Auto insurance 101

Having a good grasp of your insurance policy can help you determine the right coverages and proper limits and deductibles. Policy terminology can be difficult to understand and coverage can change by endorsement. These are typical coverage types offered by insurance companies.

Coverage for collisions

This covers damage to your XL-7 from colliding with an object or car. You first must pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision coverage protects against things such as sideswiping another vehicle, rolling your car and crashing into a ditch. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from older vehicles. Drivers also have the option to choose a higher deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive insurance

Comprehensive insurance will pay to fix damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first have to pay a deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive coverage protects against claims like hail damage, fire damage and hitting a deer. The maximum amount your insurance company will pay is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage gives you protection when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. It can pay for medical payments for you and your occupants and also any damage incurred to your Suzuki XL-7.

Due to the fact that many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. So UM/UIM coverage is very important. Usually these coverages do not exceed the liability coverage limits.

Coverage for medical expenses

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for bills like funeral costs, X-ray expenses and chiropractic care. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance plan or if there is no health insurance coverage. They cover you and your occupants and also covers 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

Liability coverages

This coverage can cover damages or injuries you inflict on a person or their property. This coverage protects you from claims by other people. It does not cover your injuries or vehicle damage.

Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. Your policy might show values of 100/300/100 which stand for $100,000 bodily injury coverage, a per accident bodily injury limit of $300,000, and $100,000 of coverage for damaged propery. Occasionally you may see a combined limit which limits claims to one amount rather than limiting it on a per person basis.

Liability insurance covers things such as loss of income, attorney fees, court costs and repair costs for stationary objects. How much liability should you purchase? That is your choice, but you should buy as much as you can afford.
