Cutting off your nose

Cut off your nose to spite your face

I get calls almost everyday from people looking for ways to save money on their insurance.   Some of these callers are regulars, calling every few months - Most of  them refuse to take the Defensive  Driving Course.

Rental Reimbursement

You should never remove rental.  Especially if you only have 1 car.  This coverage pays for a rental car.  If you're in an accident and the car ends up in the shop for repairs, you'll need a car to get around.  This coverage provides you with a car rental while the car's being repaired.

Remove Emergency Road Side Service, I have AAA

ERS coverage costs only a few dollars. Even if you have AAA or towing through the dealership, you should  have ERS on your auto policy.  If you break down in a remote area, it's good to have a back up.

Lower my limits...State requirements are only 25/50/10

10 is 10,000 and it pays for repairs to the car you just accidentally rear ended.  If that car costs more than 10K to repair (probably), or if it was pushed into another car in front, causing a multi-car pile up, you will not have enough coverage.  So you've just compromised your coverage.  Trying to save a few dollars can expose your home and assets.  For a savings of maybe $5.00.

Other ways to save 

Maybe choose the $200 Deductible on your Personal Injury Protection coverage. This coverage pays at least $50K of your Medical bills in the event of an accident.  If you or household relatives go to the hospital,  choosing the $200 Hospital deductible saves you a little bit of money.

Discounts

Take the Defensive Driving Course.  This discount saves 10% and lasts for 3 years.

If you have young drivers in the house, and they maintain a 3.0 GPA or B average, get the Good Student Discount just by getting a printout of their school transcript.

Moving 

Inland Marine policies cover items when being moved from place to place over land.  In transit or mobile equipment are other names for this type of coverage.

The day of the move

Most contractors use Inland Marine policies to protect their equipment on the way to job sites, but Homeowners can also buy this coverage when they move, as a one time policy for the day of the move.  Homeowners and renters policies provide coverage for personal property but will not pay for a loss while in transit in care of the  moving company.  Inland Marine Coverage is different  from Homeowners Insurance,  it covers all risks, including flood.

Moving can be an emotional time.  Next time you move think about purchasing a one time trip transit Inland Marine policy-  One less thing to worry about. And it can save thousands of dollars, protecting your belongings while in transit with the moving company.

Busiest day in the moving industry is July 31st

Volvo announced this week that by 2019 it will use only electric or hybrid motors in its vehicles.

"What Tesla has done is quite remarkable, and it has forced other automakers to get into the game," said Michelle Krebs, executive analyst at Autotrade.
