Which factors influence ?

Insurance rates for a 2001 can fluctuate considerably depending on several factors. Taken into consideration are:

• A clean driving record keeps rates low
• Credit rating impacts rates
• Your location impacts rates
• How many miles you drive
• Male rates may be higher
• Low deductibles cost more
• Your vehicle's safety rating
• Your profession
• Your coverage level
• Whether you rent or own your home

One last important factor that can impact the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. Used vehicles have a reduced actual cash value so repair costs tend to be lower which may result in lower rates. On the flip side, newer vehicles may have options like an advanced theft deterrent system, forward-collision avoidance, and a backup camera which may give discounted rates.

Liability insurance

This coverage can cover damages or injuries you inflict on other people or property. Liability can pay for things such as emergency aid, pain and suffering, and medical services. Coverage is generally pretty cheap so purchase as high a limit as you can afford.

Collision coverage protection

This coverage covers damage to your caused by collision with an object or car. A deductible applies then your collision coverage will kick in. 2001 collision insurance is rather expensive coverage, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. It's also possible to choose a higher deductible to get cheaper .

Comprehensive protection

Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage that is not covered by collision coverage. A deductible will apply then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The most you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle's value is low it's probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Coverage for uninsured or underinsured drivers

This protects you and your vehicle when other motorists either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Because many people have only the minimum liability required by law, their limits can quickly be used up. That's why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea.

Medical expense coverage

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP pay for expenses for things like doctor visits, EMT expenses, and X-ray expenses. They are used to fill the gap from your health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. Personal Injury Protection is not an option in every state but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage.
