Common Auto Insurance Questions
What is auto insurance?
By purchasing the right coverage, auto insurance is a paid agreement between the insured and the insurer that, in the event of an accident, the insurer will step in and help cover some of, if not, all of the costs resulting from a damaged vehicle depending on the type of coverage. In turn, drivers can feel some type of safety knowing that, if an accident occurs, they will be provided financial assistance.
How does auto insurance work?
Vehicle damage can get very expensive if an accident is severe enough, and auto insurance is a guarantee that you will be assisted in covering those expenses. In the event of an accident, you would file a claim against your policy for aspects of the accident you are responsible for and your insurance will then give you financial assistance in covering some of the costs.
It’s important to understand that having quality coverage will limit your out-of-pocket costs, rather than digging yourself into significant financial debt.
What does auto insurance cover?
The average auto insurance policy can offer numerous benefits, including:
-
Liability insurance: When an accident is deemed your fault, this coverage helps you pay for the damage you do to others (such as other drivers) who weren’t in the car with you.
-
Bodily injury liability coverage: This plan pays for third-party medical bills and sometimes for death benefits.
-
Property damage liability coverage: This pays for damage to the other party’s property.
-
Collision insurance: This covers damage to your own vehicle that you sustained in a wreck.
-
Comprehensive insurance: This coverage pays for damage from non-accident mishaps, such as weather damage, fires, theft, vandalism or similar accidents.
-
Medical payments coverage/Personal Injury Protection: If you get hurt in an accident, this coverage can pay for your medical bills. It sometimes will cover other losses, like lost income.
-
Uninsured/underinsured motorist insurance: This insures you against damage caused by someone else who doesn’t have appropriate liability coverage. If you are the victim of a hit-and-run, for example, then this coverage can pay for your car’s damage.
Plus, to further customize your benefits, you can add countless perks into qualifying policies, including:
