Criteria which help determine car insurance premiums

Insurance rates paid to insure a Chevrolet Monte-Carlo can vary widely based upon several criteria. A few of these criteria are:

• Your driving record
• Credit rating
• Male rates may be higher
• Deductible amount directly impacts your rate
• NTSB crash rating for your vehicle
• Your profession
• The amount of protection requested
• Owning a home can lower rates

One last important factor that can impact the rate you pay on your Chevrolet Monte-Carlo is the year of manufacture. Used vehicles have a much lower replacement value so the costs to repair will push premiums down. But newer vehicles may have options including lane departure warning system, anti-lock brakes, and adaptive headlights which can lower rates.

Liability coverages

Liability insurance can cover injuries or damage you cause to a person or their property. Liability coverage pays for claims such as funeral expenses, loss of income, and emergency aid. Liability insurance is relatively cheap so purchase higher limits if possible.

Collision insurance

This coverage covers damage to your Monte-Carlo from colliding with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You will need to pay your deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. You can also choose a higher deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive coverages

This pays for damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The maximum payout a auto insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if it's not worth much more than your deductible it's probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM)

This coverage protects you and your vehicle's occupants when the "other guys" either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Because many people only carry the minimum required liability limits, it doesn't take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is a good idea.

Coverage for medical payments

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP provide coverage for bills for things like ambulance fees, surgery, and doctor visits. They are often used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. PIP is not an option in every state and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay.
