Jlligiiliilßll First Charter Insurance Agency WHEN TO DROP COLLISION INSURANCE Ever think you'd hear me suggest dropping insurance coverage? In the case of automobile collision insurance, it makes sense to take a closer look after a certain period of time. This type of coverage pays for accident damage to your car no matter who is at fault. It is normally written on a SSO or SIOO deductible basis which means that the company pays the repair bill over the deductible amount. Since the insurance company will never pay you more than the current market value of your car, you reach a point where you may be paying rather high premiums for a small amount of coverage. The repairs needed after a fairly serious accident might run more than the car is worth and thus more than your insurer will pay. So, if your car is five or six years old, it's a good idea to consider dropping your collision insurance. **************** » =«= Y This Information Has Been Brought gb T° You As A Public Service By First Charter fl Insurance Agency SwmYl wn InSSjSi P.O.
