Looking to really understand what your car insurance entails? You're not alone - many approach it as just a checkbox until an accident hits. But at Covered, we're all about empowering you through knowledge. Our new blog series breaks down car insurance basics and beyond, so you can become a car insurance expert.

Let's start with the different types of car insurance coverage. Your auto policy offers various coverage types tailored to meet your state's requirements. Here's a simplified breakdown:

  1. Liability Coverage: Handles costs when you're at fault for an accident.

  2. Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist: Protects you from drivers with insufficient or no insurance.

  3. Medical Payments: Covers medical expenses, regardless of fault.

  4. Personal Injury Protection: Covers medical expenses and other costs in no-fault states.

  5. Collision: Repairs your car when you're at fault for a collision.

  6. Comprehensive: Covers non-collision damages like theft or weather-related incidents.

But wait, there's more! You can enhance your coverage with optional riders such as rental reimbursement, roadside assistance, and more to tailor your policy to your needs.

At Covered, we believe that understanding your car insurance options is key to safeguarding yourself and your vehicle. Stay informed, compare rates, and ensure you have the coverage you need for peace of mind on the road. It's simple - you're Covered.
