How Much Insurance is Enough - Auto
Auto insurance blends several
types of coverage into one policy. Typically, your policy will
include some combination of comprehensive, collision, medical,
liability and uninsured motorist coverage.
So what do you need?
It depends on your specific situation. Liability pays for the
damage you cause to others if your car is involved in an accident.
It also protects you from being wiped out financially if you are
sued following an accident. The greater your assets, the more you
stand to lose. If you have substantial financial resources, you may
need liability coverage that exceeds the coverage that you'll get
from an auto insurance policy. In that case, a Personal Umbrella can
provide the extra liability protection you need.
Collision covers damage to your car from an accident. We can help
you decide whether or not to carry collision coverage by balancing
the cost of collision insurance with the value of your car. It might
not be worth paying $200 a year for collision insurance on a car
that's worth only $1,000. But if the car is worth $10,000, you
probably want this coverage.
Comprehensive coverage pays for your car if it is stolen,
vandalized or damaged in some way other than in a collision. Medical
coverage provides for medical expenses to you and your passengers
that are the result of an accident. The way you use your car may
make a difference in the amount of medical coverage you need. For
example, we might suggest more coverage for a parent who regularly
takes a carload of kids to soccer practice than for a driver who
expects to drive mostly alone.
Keep in mind that many states require certain minimum levels of
coverage. We'd be happy to talk with you about these and other
factors.
