vary significantly from company to company, so it makes sense to
shop around. The agents at Morris Insurance can investigate your
options and find you an insurer that offers a fair price and quality
service.
Types of Auto Insurance
 |
Bodily injury liability --
Covers damages when another person is injured or killed in an
accident involving your vehicle. |
 |
Property damage liability --
Covers damages when your vehicle causes damage to others'
property. |
 |
Medical payments coverage --
Covers medical costs and other damages for injuries to you and
your passengers. |
 |
Collision coverage -- Covers
loss or damage to your vehicle from a collision with another
vehicle or object, when you're at fault. |
 |
Comprehensive coverage --
Covers loss or damage to your vehicle caused by fire, theft,
vandalism, windshield damage, striking an animal, floods and
certain other perils. |
 |
Uninsured motorist coverage --
Covers damages to you and your passengers when injury or death
is caused by an uninsured, underinsured or hit-and-run
motorist. |
Ways to Save on your Auto Insurance
 |
Look at higher deductibles --
You can lower your cost by requesting higher deductibles on
collision and comprehensive coverage. |
 |
Eliminate collision and/or
comprehensive coverage on older cars -- In some cases it
doesn't make financial sense to cover older cars of low value
with collision or comprehensive coverage. |
 |
Buy a "low profile"
car -- Look into the insurance costs for a specific car before
you buy it; expensive cars are expensive to repair so they
will cost more to insure, as will cars that are the favorite
targets of thieves. |
 |
Take advantage of discounts: |
|
Some companies offer discounts
to motorists who drive a limited number of miles each year. |
|
You may be eligible for
additional discounts if you have automatic seat belts, airbags
and/or anti-lock brakes. |
|
Depending upon the insurer,
discounts are also offered for no accidents, driver training
courses, anti-theft devices, good grades for students and
having more than one car insured with the company. |
