Types of Coverages:

1.Liability Coverages:

Liability coverage has two components:

  • Bodily injury liability may help pay for costs related to another person's injuries if you cause an accident.
  • Property damage liability may help pay for damage you cause to another person's property while driving.
  • You may also want to consider an umbrella policy which provides additional coverage for more serious accidents and lawsuits.

2.Medical Coverage:

If you, your passengers or family members who are driving the insured vehicle are injured in an accident, medical payments coverage may help pay for costs associated with the injuries. Covered costs may include hospital visits, surgery, X-rays and more.

Medical payments coverage is required in some states and optional in others.

Personal injury protection, or PIP, is only available in some states. Like medical payments coverage, PIP may help pay for your medical expenses after an accident. In addition, PIP may also help cover other expenses incurred because of your injuries — for example, child care expenses or lost income

3.Uninsured/Underinsured Motorists:

If you are hit by a driver who doesn't have insurance, uninsured motorist coverage may help pay for your medical bills or, in some states, repairs to your vehicle. If you're hit by an underinsured driver, that means they have car insurance but their liability limits aren't enough to cover your resulting medical bills. That's where underinsured motorist coverage may help.

4.Vehicle Coverage:

Collision coverage
If you are involved in an accident with another vehicle, or if you hit an object such as a fence, collision coverage may help pay to repair or replace your car (up to its actual cash value and minus your deductible).Collision coverage is typically optional. It may be required, however, by your vehicle's leaseholder or lender.

Comprehensive coverage
Comprehensive may help cover damage to your car from things like theft, fire, hail or vandalism. If your car is damaged by a covered peril, comprehensive coverage may help pay to repair or replace your vehicle (up to the vehicle's actual cash value). This coverage has a deductible, which is the amount you'll pay out of pocket before your insurer reimburses you for a covered claim. Comprehensive is typically an optional coverage, but your lender may require it if you're leasing or paying off your vehicle.

5. Emergency roadside assistance

6. Rental Reimbursement:

Discounts you can avail:

  • Keep more of your hard-earned dollars: Save your insurance premium by availing these discounts
  • Safe driving mobile app
  • Bundle policies-save as much as 15%

Mobile app and bundling the policies are the best ways to save on insurance premium

Should I Include My Child Who Recently Got Their Driver’s License on My Auto Insurance?

Congratulations! Your child has just earned their driver’s license. It’s an exciting milestone, but it also comes with new responsibilities and decisions. One crucial consideration is including your newly licensed child on your auto insurance policy.

Why You Should Get Insured and Be Protected

Ensuring that your child is included in your auto insurance policy is not just a smart decision—it’s essential for protecting your family and your assets. Here are some key reasons why you should add your young driver:

  1. Coverage in Case of Accidents

Accidents can happen to anyone, regardless of their driving experience. By adding your child to your auto insurance policy, you ensure they are covered in case of an accident. This coverage can help cover medical expenses, property damage, and potential legal fees.

  1. Avoiding Claim Rejections

It’s important to be upfront with your insurance carrier about all drivers in your household. Most insurance carriers require that all licensed drivers living in the household be listed on the policy. If an unlisted driver gets into an accident, the insurance company may reject the claim, leaving you to bear the financial burden. Sharing a personal anecdote, our experience has shown that insurance carriers often reject claims when household members weren’t added to the policy.

  1. No Extra Charge for Learner’s Permitted Drivers

The good news is that most insurance companies do not charge extra for adding drivers with a learner’s permit. This means you can include your child on your policy early on without seeing a significant increase in your premium. This practice varies by company, so it’s always best to check with your insurance provider.

How to Add Your Child to Your Policy

Adding your child to your auto insurance policy is a straightforward process. Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Contact Your Insurance Agent: Reach out to your insurance agent or company representative and inform them that your child has received their driver’s license and you would like to add them to your policy.
  2. Provide Necessary Information: Be prepared to provide your child’s personal information, such as their full name, date of birth, and driver’s license number.
  3. Review Your Policy: Discuss any changes to your policy, including potential adjustments to your coverage and premium. Your insurance agent can help you understand how adding your child may impact your overall policy.

Conclusion

Including your newly licensed child on your auto insurance policy is a responsible and necessary step to ensure their safety and your financial protection. By getting them insured, you can drive with peace of mind knowing that your family is covered in case of any unforeseen incidents.
