Top Insurance Policies

Finding a good insurance policy is not an easy mission. Here is an article by Jake Coxwell that will help you with this task.

The Top Car Insurance Policy Options

A person that is shopping for car insurance will find that they have a variety of policy options. From state to state there are mandatory levels of protection that must be had but here are also some additional forms of coverage that can be added to a policy. The most common forms of car insurance coverage are auto liability, collision, and comprehensive coverage; however there are a variety of policy options that can be added to the plan to extend the coverage. For drivers who are considering a new car insurance plan, it is important to consider some additional coverage.

Uninsured motorist coverage

This coverage is intended to cover expenses when the policy holder is in an accident with someone who is driving without insurance. It can be used to cover medical expenses and possibly property damage. Uninsured motorist plans cover different kinds of losses depending on what state you live in and the insurance company that provides the plan. This coverage may be particularly beneficial in states where they have a problem with uninsured motorists.

Underinsured motorist coverage

This kind of coverage is intended to protect the policy holder in the event of an accident with a driver that has insufficient liability insurance. It can be used to cover medical expenses and property damage. How the policy functions and what is considered a covered loss will depend on the regulations of the state in which you live and how the policy is structured by the insurer. This option may be particularly beneficial in states where the minimum car insurance requirement is exceptionally low.

Personal injury protection coverage

This form of coverage is intended to cover the medical expenses of the driver and the passengers in the event of an accident. This coverage will protect the driver and their passengers from high medical costs associated with a car accident regardless of who is at fault.

Road side assistance coverage

This coverage is intended to protect the policy holder in the event of a road side emergency. Different road side assistance packages may cover different events. Most of these policies cover events like towing and getting locked out. There usually are limits on the amount of road side service that is covered by the policy.

Emergency rental insurance

This policy option can cover the cost of a rental car in the event that the covered vehicle is unavailable for use. If the covered vehicle is damaged through a covered event, the insurer will arrange and pay for a rental car while repairs are being done. There may be exceptions regarding how many miles may be driven and how many days the insurance company will pay for the rental car.

Between all of the different car insurance policies and all of the additional forms of coverage that can be added to a policy, a driver has a lot of options when comes to how their car insurance plan is structured. Research the different options your insurer offers and how the policy functions under their plan. Knowing your options and how they work can help any driver get a car insurance policy that fits their needs.
