The purpose of this post is to teach you how car insurance quotes work and some money-saving tips. But drivers do need to know how companies price insurance differently because it can help you find the best coverage.

Finding Insurance Coverage

Most major insurance companies provide prices directly from their websites. Getting online quotes is fairly straightforward as you just enter the coverage amounts you desire into the quote form. After you complete the form, the company’s rating system automatically retrieves your driving record and credit report and returns pricing information based on these and other factors.

This streamlines rate comparisons, but having to visit different websites and fill out multiple forms can be a bit tiresome and repetitive. But it’s absolutely necessary to perform this step in order to find lower prices.

The easiest way to locate the lowest prices is to use a quote form that gets price quotes from several different companies. It’s a real time-saver, helps eliminate reptitive entry, and makes rate comparisons much easier. Once the form is submitted, it is quoted with multiple companies and you can pick any one of the quotes that you receive. If a lower price is quoted, you simply finish the application and purchase the new policy. This process takes just a few minutes to complete and you will find out if you’re overpaying now.

If you have coverage now, it’s recommended you input deductibles and limits exactly as shown on your declarations page. This ensures you will get a rate comparison using the same coverage and limits.

Which insurance is the “right” coverage?

When choosing the best insurance coverage coverage for your vehicles, there is no one size fits all plan. Everyone’s situation is unique.

These are some specific questions can help discover if your situation will benefit from professional help.

• I don’t drive much so do I pay less?
• Why does it cost so much to insure a teen driver?
• Am I covered when driving in Canada or Mexico?
• Will my vehicle be repaired with OEM or aftermarket parts?
• Is my dog or cat covered if injured in an accident?
• Should I drop comprehensive coverage on older vehicles?
• Is business equipment covered while in my vehicle?
• How high should my medical payments coverage be?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions but you think they might apply to your situation then you might want to talk to a licensed agent. If you don’t have a local agent, fill out this quick form.

Coverages available on your policy

Learning about specific coverages of your policy can be of help when determining appropriate coverage at the best deductibles and correct limits. The coverage terms in a policy can be ambiguous and nobody wants to actually read their policy.

Collision coverage protection

Collision insurance pays for damage to your H3T from colliding with another car or object. You have to pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision coverage pays for things like hitting a mailbox, rolling your car and colliding with another moving vehicle. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are older. Another option is to raise the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage provides protection from other motorists when they do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered losses include injuries to you and your family as well as damage to your HUMMER H3T.

Since many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP provide coverage for immediate expenses like ambulance fees, chiropractic care, nursing services and prosthetic devices. 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 all vehicle occupants as well as getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage

Comprehensive coverage

This will pay to fix damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first must pay your deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for claims like damage from a tornado or hurricane, hail damage, damage from flooding, a broken windshield and theft. The highest amount 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.

Liability insurance

Liability insurance can cover damage or injury you incur to people or other property by causing an accident. This insurance protects YOU from legal claims by others. Liability doesn’t cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. As an example, you may have limits of 25/50/25 that translate to a limit of $25,000 per injured person, a per accident bodily injury limit of $50,000, and property damage coverage for $25,000.

Liability insurance covers claims like legal defense fees, attorney fees, structural damage and funeral expenses. How much coverage you buy is up to you, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.
