Detailed coverages of your auto insurance policy

Understanding the coverages of auto insurance helps when choosing the right coverages for your vehicles. Auto insurance terms can be ambiguous and coverage can change by endorsement. Below you’ll find typical coverages found on the average auto insurance policy.

Medical expense insurance – Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP kick in for bills for things like EMT expenses, pain medications, dental work and doctor visits. They can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if you are not covered by health insurance. Medical payments and PIP cover you and your occupants and also covers being hit by a car walking across the street. Personal injury protection coverage is not an option in every state and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Collision – This covers damage to your Transit Connect from colliding with another car or object. You first must pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision can pay for things such as sideswiping another vehicle, crashing into a ditch, colliding with another moving vehicle and driving through your garage door. Collision is rather expensive coverage, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are older. Another option is to increase the deductible on your Transit Connect to bring the cost down.

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers – This protects you and your vehicle from other motorists when they either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered claims include injuries to you and your family and damage to your Ford Transit Connect.

Since a lot of drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits (which is 25/50/10), it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. This is the reason having UM/UIM coverage is a good idea.

Comprehensive (Other than Collision) – This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first have to pay a deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive coverage protects against claims like rock chips in glass, theft and damage from flooding. The most you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider dropping full coverage.

Liability – This can cover damages or injuries you inflict on other people or property in an accident. Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. Your policy might show liability limits of 25/50/10 which stand for $25,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $50,000, and property damage coverage for $10,000.

Liability coverage pays for claims such as loss of income, repair costs for stationary objects and funeral expenses. How much coverage you buy is up to you, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as much as you can afford. Washington state law requires minimum liability limits of 25/50/10 but it’s recommended drivers buy more liability than the minimum.

Be persistent to save money

While you’re price shopping online, don’t be tempted to buy less coverage just to save a little money. In many cases, an insured dropped liability coverage limits and learned later that they should have had better coverage. The goal is to purchase plenty of coverage at a price you can afford and still be able to protect your assets.

Cost effective Ford Transit Connect insurance is available from both online companies as well as from independent agents in Seattle, so you need to shop Seattle auto insurance with both to get a complete price analysis. Some insurance providers may not have the ability to get quotes online and usually these smaller companies provide coverage only through local independent agencies.
