Collision coverage helps pay the costs of repairing or replacing your car if it is damaged in an accident with another car or a fixed object such as a tree, fence or pole. It can also cover damage resulting from a rollover, or pay if another driver hits your car and you don’t have enough insurance to pay for the damage.
Collision coverage is like comprehensive coverage, an optional coverage that you can add to your auto insurance policy at your discretion, if the car is already 100% yours. Rented or financed cars usually have these coverages as a requirement from the lender.
Collision coverage covers a number of traffic accidents, such as:
If you are involved in an accident and another driver is totally at fault, his liability insurance must pay for the damage to your car. This coverage is mandatory in 49 of the 50 states, but some still do not have it. Assuming the other driver does, the claim is made to their insurance.
However, in many states, the minimum limits are low and a driver with only minimum limits may not have enough coverage to pay for his car, in which case, his collision insurance would kick in.
This is one of the reasons creditors demand comprehensive and collision coverage.
Collision only covers damage to your car. That means you don’t pay for damage to someone else’s vehicle or property. Collision coverage also does not cover all damage to your vehicle, it does NOT cover:
Some of these coverages are covered by comprehensive coverage, which complements your auto insurance policy. Learn more about Comprehensive Insurance here.
Although it is common to confuse comprehensive coverage with collision coverage, they are very different. Complementary, but different.
Comprehensive covers events beyond your control: theft, vandalism, fire and weather-related incidents. Collision coverage protects against damage to your car caused by hitting another vehicle or object, regardless of who was at fault.

To clarify: Neither coverage will cover medical expenses for an accident or damage to someone else’s vehicle if you have an accident.
This coverage is only optional if the car is already 100% yours. If it is rented or still financed, chances are that this requirement has been made.
In addition to your home, your car is often your most valuable asset. How much can you shell out without warning? How would you go about fixing or replacing it if it was destroyed in an accident?
Although collision coverage increases the cost of your auto insurance policy, it protects the equity you have in your vehicle. Even if it’s not officially yours yet, collision coverage can help pay off everything you still owe.
You need to consider the situations covered by insurance and identify if they are risks that justify the added cost to your auto insurance policy. And how the disbursed amount compares to the car’s value.
Assuming your car is paid off, there are some situations that justify not using collision coverage:
If your car’s current value is too low, collision coverage can be an unnecessary protection, especially if a large deductible is involved. For example, if your car is worth $1,500 and your deductible is $1,000, the most your insurer will pay on a collision claim is $500.
If your car is stored or never used, collision coverage is not required. Comprehensive coverage protects against theft, vandalism, fire, broken glass and weather-related damage that can occur while your car is stationary.
If your vehicle is listed on a family member’s policy, has collision coverage, and is kept overnight at the address you share with that family member, you may not need to add a collision to your own policy. Make sure you are also listed as a driver on that person’s policy and speak with your insurer or agent to ensure that you and your car are properly protected.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all of the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside of it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers), both for Windows and for MAC users.
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs, there may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
