Many car owners spend a good deal of time driving to work,  business appointments, dropping kids off at school, and keeping cool while maneuvering a gridlocked merge into the Lincoln Tunnel. When you least expect it, an emergency arises. Drivers can have peace of mind when they have the right auto insurance coverage that protects their loved ones, their car, and themselves.

At Muller Insurance, our auto insurance products are provided by Chubb, Mercury, Travelers, and Progressive Insurance Companies. We provide the most respected names in the insurance industry.

Mandated by the state, auto insurance is a contract between you and an insurance company that protects you against financial loss if you have an accident. You agree to pay the premium and the insurance company agrees to pay your losses as defined in your policy. Most auto policies are for six months to a year. An auto insurance policy is comprised of different kinds of coverage such as liability and physical damage.  Most states require you to buy some, but not all, of these available coverages. If you’re financing and/or leasing a car, your lender will also have certain requirements.

Key coverages on an auto policy are liability, physical damage, and medical expenses which are defined as follows:

Physical Damage Coverage: pays for damage to your vehicle if you were in a collision, the windshield was damaged or broken, the vehicle catches on fire, is stolen, or vandalized.

Liability Coverage: pays for your legal responsibility to others for bodily injury or property damage that occurred due to your negligence.

Medical Coverage: pays for the cost of medical treatment due to injuries sustained in a covered loss.

There are 2 key types of loss settlements for damage to your vehicle. They are:

Agreed Value Coverage and Actual Cash Value.

Agreed Value allows you to know the settlement value if your vehicle is declared a total loss whereas Actual Cash Value is subject to depreciation and deductible. Please speak to your insurance representative to determine what type of coverage you currently have.

We also provide coverage for drivers who have the following: 7 or more points, DUI, DWI, and/or policy cancellation for over 30 days.

Sure, you can purchase auto insurance quite easily online, but if you really want peace of mind behind the wheel, I recommend visiting your local insurance agent, where you can fine-tune your car insurance policy to protect your lifestyle, the car that gets you where you need to go, and your friends and family who trust you with their lives.
