Insurance coverage basics

Learning about specific coverages of a insurance policy can help you determine the right coverages for your vehicles. The terms used in a policy can be difficult to understand and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording.

Auto liability

This coverage can cover damage that occurs to other people or property. It protects you against claims from other people, and doesn’t cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury per person, bodily injury per accident and property damage. You commonly see values of 50/100/50 which means $50,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $100,000, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery.

Liability coverage pays for things like medical expenses, loss of income, funeral expenses, pain and suffering and court costs. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is a decision to put some thought into, but consider buying as high a limit as you can afford.

Collision protection

This will pay to fix damage to your Aveo from colliding with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You first must pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision coverage pays for things such as hitting a parking meter, colliding with a tree and sustaining damage from a pot hole. This coverage can be expensive, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are older. Another option is to choose a higher deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Medical expense insurance

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage reimburse you for short-term medical expenses for things like rehabilitation expenses, EMT expenses, nursing services and hospital visits. They are often used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if there is no health insurance coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover you and your occupants in addition to being hit by a car walking across the street. Personal injury protection coverage is not available in all states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers

This coverage protects you and your vehicle when other motorists are uninsured or don’t have enough coverage. It can pay for injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants and damage to your 2006 Chevy Aveo.

Due to the fact that many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is important protection for you and your family.

Comprehensive (Other than Collision)

Comprehensive insurance coverage covers damage from a wide range of events other than collision. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive can pay for things such as damage from flooding, fire damage, damage from a tornado or hurricane and falling objects. The maximum amount a insurance company will pay at claim time is the ACV or actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value consider dropping full coverage.
