Compare free insurance quotes

There are several ways to compare insurance quotes, but some are less time-consuming than others. You could waste time talking to insurance companies in your area, or you can stay home and use the internet for quick rates.

Most of the best insurance companies take part in a program that enables customers to complete one form, and each participating company can provide price quotes determined by their information. This saves time by eliminating quotation requests to every company.

Which policy gives me the best coverage?

When it comes to buying the best car insurance coverage for your vehicles, there isn’t really a “perfect” insurance plan. Every situation is different.

These are some specific questions might help in determining if your insurance needs may require specific advice.

• Will I be non-renewed for getting a DUI or other conviction?
• Which is better, split liability limits or combined limits?
• I have good health insurance, so how much medical payments coverage do I need?
• At what point should I drop full coverage?
• Am I covered when driving someone else’s vehicle?
• What if I owe more than I can insure my car for?
• What is high-risk coverage and where do I buy it?
• Am I covered if I crash into my own garage door?
• Is a fancy paint job covered?
• Do I need rental car coverage?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions but you know they apply to you then you might want to talk to an insurance agent. If you don’t have a local agent, fill out your zip code. It’s fast, doesn’t cost anything and may give you better protection.

Parts of your insurance policy

Learning about specific coverages of insurance helps when choosing the best coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. Policy terminology can be impossible to understand and coverage can change by endorsement.

Medical payments coverage and PIP

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance kick in for immediate expenses like EMT expenses, hospital visits, doctor visits, prosthetic devices and pain medications. The coverages can be used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. Coverage applies to both the driver and occupants in addition to being hit by a car walking across the street. PIP is not universally available but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle from other motorists when they do not carry enough liability coverage. This coverage pays for medical payments for you and your occupants and damage to your BMW 3 Series eDrive.

Since a lot of drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage should not be overlooked.

Liability insurance

Liability coverage will cover damage that occurs to other’s property or people in an accident. It protects you against other people’s claims. It does not cover your own vehicle damage or injuries.

Liability coverage has three limits: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. Your policy might show values of 100/300/100 that translate to $100,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a limit of $300,000 in injury protection per accident, and a total limit of $100,000 for damage to vehicles and property.

Liability coverage pays for claims such as structural damage, pain and suffering and loss of income. How much liability coverage do you need? That is a decision to put some thought into, but buy as much as you can afford.

Comprehensive coverage

Comprehensive insurance will pay to fix damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first must pay your deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive insurance covers things such as rock chips in glass, a broken windshield, damage from flooding, falling objects and a tree branch falling on your vehicle. The maximum amount you’ll receive from a claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Auto collision coverage

This will pay to fix damage to your 3 Series eDrive resulting from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. A deductible applies then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision can pay for things like hitting a parking meter, damaging your car on a curb, backing into a parked car and scraping a guard rail. This coverage can be expensive, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from lower value vehicles. Drivers also have the option to bump up the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.
