Knowing Your Auto Insurance Options
There are many types of auto insurance options available from a number of sources, so before making your final decision, it’s very important that you find out which is the right auto insurance for your particular situation. Of even more benefit, at DFW Insurance you gain access to multiple insurance quotes free of charge, which lets you compare rates without anyone pressuring you into making a purchase.
Auto insurance is divided into categories of coverage:
- General liability covers damage you cause to other people’s property and injuries to the people themselves.
- Collision covers damage to your own vehicle in an accident.
- Comprehensive (i.e., fire, theft and other non-collision damage) covers fire damage to your vehicle, break-ins, vandalism or theft, as well as natural disasters (earthquake, hail, hurricane, flood, etc.).
- Medical payments insurance, usually in the range of $5,000 to $10,000, covers medical expenses for injuries. This “good-faith” coverage guarantees immediate medical payments for you, your passengers and other parties, regardless of who is at fault. It also covers you and members of your household in any accident involving an automobile, whether you are on foot, on a bicycle, in a friend’s car.
- Uninsured motorist (UM) and underinsured motorist (UIM) coverage protects you if you are injured in an accident with others who themselves carry insufficient or no liability insurance.
- Additional coverage typically includes expenses to cover a rental car after a claim, towing, etc. These are usually endorsed to your policy at your request.
- Discounts – We understand that you want the best coverage for the cheapest price so don’t be shy about asking for discounts on auto insurance with the company you select. You most likely are eligible for some of them and they can only help get you a lower rate.
How Auto Insurance Rates are Determined
When it comes to auto insurance rates, getting the right insurance policy depends on how many miles you drive your automobile throughout the year. Let’s just suppose you don’t drive to work each day but only use your car on weekends. That would mean that your premium might be quite a bit lower. With that under your belt, you would probably qualify for a lower rate. There are other ways to lower your auto insurance, such as increasing your comprehensive and collision deductibles. You might even consider combining auto and home insurance policies, as that too can lower the cost of your auto insurance policy. Because there are so many ways to get discounts, you should speak with one of the insurance company’s agents to be sure that you are getting the best deal.
