What factors impact ?

Auto insurance rates on a 2008 can fluctuate considerably based upon several criteria. Taken into consideration are:

• Your driving record
• Credit rating impacts rates
• The size of your community
• The number of annual miles
• Your gender can raise or lower rates
• The deductible you choose
• Your vehicle's safety rating
• What you do for a living
• Your coverage level
• Whether you rent or own your home

A final factor which can affect is the model year. Models that are a few years old have a reduced actual cash value in comparison to older models so the cost to replace them will push premiums down. On the flip side, newer models may have a trim level with safety features like adaptive headlights, anti-lock brakes, traction control, and a telematics system which may help offset higher rates.

Liability coverages

Liability insurance protects you from damages or injuries you inflict on people or other 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 consider buying as high a limit as you can afford.

Auto collision coverage

This pays for damage to your resulting from a collision with an object or car. A deductible applies and then insurance will cover the remainder. Collision coverage for your 2008 can be pricey, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are older. Drivers also have the option to bump up the deductible to get cheaper .

Comprehensive coverages

This coverage covers damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first have to pay a deductible and the remainder of the damage will be paid by your comprehensive insurance. The most you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle's value consider dropping full coverage.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage

This provides protection when other motorists do not carry enough liability coverage. Since a lot of drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. That's why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage should not be overlooked.

Coverage for medical payments

Med pay and PIP coverage provide coverage for expenses (i.e. doctor visits, EMT expenses, and X-ray expenses). They can be used in conjunction with a health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. PIP is not available in all states and may carry a deductible.
