What factors impact ?

Insurance rates paid to insure a 2000 can fluctuate considerably based upon several criteria. Taken into consideration are:

• Your driving record
• Credit rating impacts rates
• The size of your community
• Annual mileage can affect rates
• Male drivers pay higher rates
• Low deductibles cost more
• Your vehicle's safety rating
• Your profession
• The level of coverage
• Whether you rent or own your home

One last important factor which can affect the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. Models that are a few years old have a reduced actual cash value so the costs to repair will push premiums down. Conversely, new models may have options such as pedestrian detection, a collision avoidance system, and adaptive headlights which may give discounted rates.

Coverage for liability

Liability insurance provides protection from damages or injuries you inflict on a person or their property that is your fault. Liability can pay for things such as emergency aid, pain and suffering, and medical services. Liability insurance is relatively cheap so purchase as high a limit as you can afford.

Auto collision coverage

This pays to fix your vehicle from damage from colliding with an object or car. A deductible applies and then insurance will cover the remainder. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. It's also possible to choose a higher deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)

This pays to fix your vehicle from damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The most you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle's value is low consider removing comprehensive coverage.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage

This protects you and your vehicle from other drivers when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. Since a lot of drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their limits can quickly be used up. So UM/UIM coverage should not be overlooked.

Insurance for medical payments

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance provide coverage for expenses for things like doctor visits, EMT expenses, and X-ray expenses. They are used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance program or if you do not have health coverage. PIP is not universally available but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage.
