Cheap Car Insurance Rates With Uninsured Motorist Coverage
Cheap car insurance is important to any driver; however, there are some areas that should not be skimped on to save a few bucks; one of these items is uninsured motorist coverage
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 30, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- Especially with today's economy, drivers are shopping around for cheap car insurance or changing their policy to make it more affordable. Depending on the vehicle being driven, there are some types of coverage that can be dropped, such as collision coverage for cars with low value. One area that should not be dropped is uninsured motorist coverage.
With the difficult economy, some drivers are choosing to drop their coverage all together, meaning that there are more uninsured motorists on the road, adding to the potential of being in an accident with one. If in an accident with an uninsured or under-insured motorist, and the other party is at fault, they do not have insurance that would cover the repairs or medical expenses from the accident. Or they could have insurance, but it is not enough to cover the total expenses.
In this situation, uninsured or under-insured motorist coverage would pick up the tab or cover the difference. This type of coverage has a bodily injury component, which pays covered medical expenses for the driver and passengers, and a property component, which generally covers the damages to the vehicle. Without having these important areas covered, a driver would have to sue to collect damages if the uninsured or under-insured motorist does not pay out of pocket. Plus, these expenses would likely need to be paid out of the driver's pocket until, or if, they are reimbursed for the costs. When inquiring about a cheap car insurance rate, drivers should ask about this type of coverage.
When it comes to coverage amounts when looking at cheap car insurance, there is no right answer. Coverage amounts can range from $20,000 to $1 million or more but many choose the amount needed to cover their bodily injury. Accumulated assets and risk tolerance should also be taken into consideration.
