Auto insurance companies offer many discounts

Auto insurance is neither fun to buy or cheap, but you may find discounts that can dramatically reduce your bill. Larger premium reductions will be automatically applied at the time you complete a quote, but some may not be applied and must be asked about before being credited. If you check and find you aren’t receiving every discount you deserve, you could be saving more on your auto insurance.

Driver’s Education for Students – Reduce the cost of insurance for teen drivers by having them complete a driver education course in high school.
Pay Upfront and Save – By paying your policy upfront instead of making monthly payments you may have a lower total premium amount.
Sign Online – Some of the larger companies will discount your bill up to fifty bucks on the internet.
Accident-Free Discounts – Drivers with accident-free driving histories can earn big discounts when compared to accident-prone drivers.
Low Mileage – Driving fewer miles can earn slightly better premium rates than normal.

Discounts reduce rates, but you should keep in mind that some of the credits will not apply the the whole policy. Most only cut specific coverage prices like medical payments or collision. Even though it appears adding up those discounts means a free policy, you’re out of luck.

Do I just need basic coverages?

When choosing adequate coverage, there isn’t really a perfect coverage plan. Everyone’s situation is a little different and a cookie cutter policy won’t apply. Here are some questions about coverages that might help in determining whether or not you may require specific advice.

Does liability extend to a camper or trailer?
What are Nevada no-fault laws?
Do I need higher deductibles?
Should I file a claim if it’s only slightly more than my deductible?
Should I sign the liability waiver when renting a car?
What if I don’t agree with a claim settlement offer?
Are my tools covered if they get stolen from my vehicle?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions but one or more may apply to you then you might want to talk to an agent. To find lower rates from a local agent, complete this form or click here for a list of auto insurance companies in your area. It’s fast, free and can help protect your family.

Auto insurance coverage options for a Saturn Aura

Understanding the coverages of a auto insurance policy helps when choosing the right coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. Auto insurance terms can be difficult to understand and coverage can change by endorsement. These are typical coverage types offered by auto insurance companies. free Las Vegas insurance quote

Collision protection

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

Collision insurance covers claims such as backing into a parked car, crashing into a building, rolling your car, hitting a parking meter and crashing into a ditch. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so consider dropping it from older vehicles. It’s also possible to increase the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Med pay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP)

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP kick in for short-term medical expenses such as nursing services, pain medications, surgery, dental work and doctor visits. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance plan or if you lack health insurance entirely. Coverage applies to all vehicle occupants and will also cover any family member struck as a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is not available in all states and may carry a deductible

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM)

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage gives you protection when the “other guys” either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered losses include hospital bills for your injuries and also any damage incurred to your Saturn Aura.

Since a lot of drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits (15/30/10), it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. So UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Comprehensive insurance

Comprehensive insurance coverage will pay to fix damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You need to pay your deductible first then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive can pay for things such as hitting a deer, a tree branch falling on your vehicle, damage from a tornado or hurricane, damage from flooding and fire damage. The maximum payout a auto insurance company will pay at claim time is the cash value of the vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much it’s not worth carrying full coverage.

Auto liability insurance

Liability coverage protects you from damages or injuries you inflict on a person or their property. This coverage protects you against claims from other people. It does not cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. Your policy might show liability limits of 50/100/50 that translate to $50,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $100,000, and property damage coverage for $50,000.

Liability can pay for things like legal defense fees, pain and suffering and funeral expenses. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is your choice, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible. Nevada requires minimum liability limits of 15,000/30,000/10,000 but you should consider buying more coverage.

Summing up your auto insurance search

When trying to cut insurance costs, never buy poor coverage just to save money. There have been many situations where consumers will sacrifice collision coverage and learned later that a couple dollars of savings turned into a financial nightmare. The ultimate goal is to purchase a proper amount of coverage at the lowest possible cost but still have enough coverage for asset protection.

Cost effective Saturn Aura insurance can be purchased on the web and with local Las Vegas insurance agents, and you need to price shop both to have the best rate selection. Some companies may not provide rates over the internet and many times these smaller companies provide coverage only through independent agents.
