Summer Road Trips: What to Know About Auto Insurance Coverage

As summer approaches, many Georgia drivers may plan road trips and vacations. Before heading out, review your auto insurance and confirm it reflects your current needs. Ski Enterprise LLC can help you go over your coverage before you travel.

Key Auto Insurance Considerations for Summer Travel

Standard auto insurance policies may include the following coverage types:

• Liability coverage may cover injuries or damage you may cause to others in an accident.
• Comprehensive coverage may help pay for damage to your vehicle from noncollision events such as theft, weather events or hitting an animal.
• Collision coverage may help cover the cost of repairs or replacement if your vehicle is damaged in a crash involving other vehicles or stationary objects, regardless of who is at fault.
• Uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage may help cover your costs if you’re involved in an accident with someone who doesn’t carry adequate insurance.
• Roadside assistance coverage can be added to many policies for towing, flat tires or lockouts.
• Rental reimbursement coverage can assist with costs if you need to rent a vehicle due to a covered incident damaging your car.
• Trip interruption coverage can help pay for hotels and other additional costs if your car breaks down or is disabled by a covered incident while you’re far from home.

Tips for Staying Covered on the Road

Keep these helpful tips in mind as you prepare for your trip:

• Review your policy: Look over your coverage and note any recent changes.
• Carry proof of insurance: Keep your insurance card readily available.
• Know your coverage area: Although your policy will typically extend to all 50 states, if you plan to drive across international borders, alternative coverage may be necessary.
• Prepare for emergencies: Bring basic supplies and your insurer’s contact details.
