Diferent kinds of Coverage available in auto insurance

The consumer may be protected with different coverage types depending on what coverage the insured purchases. Some states require that motorists carry liability insurance coverage to ensure that their drivers can cover the cost of damages to people or property in the event of an automobile accident. In the United States, liability insurance covers claims against the policy holder and generally, any other operator of the insured vehicles, provided they do not live at the same address as the policy holder, and are not specifically excluded on the policy. In the case of those living at the same address, they must specifically be covered on the policy. Thus it is necessary, for example, when a family member comes of driving age that they be added to the policy. Liability insurance sometimes does not protect the policy holder if they operate any vehicles other than their own. When you

drive a vehicle owned by another party, you are covered under that party’s policy. Non-owners policies may be offered that would cover an insured on any vehicle they drive. This coverage is available only to those who do not own their own vehicle and is sometimes required by the government for drivers who have previously been found at fault in an accident. Non-owners policies are also known as Named Operator Policies. The policies are useful for people whose drivers license has been suspended and they have to have insurance for their license to be reinstated. Generally, liability coverage extends when you rent a car. Comprehensive policies ("full coverage") usually also apply to the rental vehicle, although this should be verified beforehand. Full coverage premiums are based on, among other factors, the value of the insured’s vehicle.

THIS IS IMPORTANT TO YOU

Things that you must know Be Sure to Insure! Here are some things you need to know about recent vehicle liability insurance changes: ·

As of January 1, 2006, all insurance companies are required to report insurance status information to DMV for all private use vehicles (CVC §16058).

As of July 1, 2006, law enforcement and court personnel have access to DMV records to verify that your California registered vehicle is currently insured (CVC §16058.1).

Effective October 1, 2006, your vehicle registration is subject to suspension if the liability insurance is cancelled, OR if your insurance company has not electronically provided evidence of insurance when you purchase and register your vehicle, OR if you provide DMV with false insurance information (CVC §4000.38).

What does this mean to the California vehicle owner? ·

You will have greater assurance that the vehicle next to you on the road is covered by liability insurance.

You will have the opportunity to renew your registration online, over the phone, or at a self-service terminal.

You will not have to submit paper proof of insurance with your private-use vehicle registration renewal.

Remember, you must carry proof of insurance in your vehicle at all times.

Insurance Requirements for Vehicle Registration California’s Vehicle Financial Responsibility and Suspension Laws Purpose of the law In 2006, the law changed the way the Department of Motor Vehicles verifies insurance for privately owned vehicles. Changes were made to ensure that vehicles driven on California roads have liability insurance that provides financial responsibility for any damage or injury caused by a traffic collision regardless of fault, and to remove uninsured vehicles from the highways.

Motorcycle Insurance Facts The financial responsibility sections of the Vehicle Code apply to all two-wheel vehicle owners and operators. If you, as an operator, are involved in an accident which causes more than $750 in property damage to one person, including yourself, or in which anyone, including yourself, is injured, no matter how slightly, you (or your insurance agent, broker, or legal representative) must report the accident to DMV. The CHPor police will not make this report. You must make this report within 10 days on the Report of Traffic Accident Occurring in California (SR1) form. You can get this form from any DMV or CHP office. This form is also available on DMV’s web site at www. dmv.ca.gov. Refer to the California Driver Handbook for more information. Check with your insurance company about your coverage before you buy or ride a motorcycle.

Insurance companies in California are required by law (California Vehicle Code [CVC] §16058) to electronically report private-use vehicle insurance information to DMV. Insurance companies are exempt from electronically reporting insurance information for vehicles covered by commercial or business insurance policies. Electronic reporting of insurance information and programming changes that took effect in 2006, allows the department to monitor insurance coverage and take appropriate actions through vehicle suspension as required by law. Law enforcement and court personnel have electronic access to insurance status on DMV records.

Mandatory requirements Financial responsibility is required on any vehicle operated or parked on California roadways. You must carry evidence of financial responsibility in your vehicle at all times and must be provided as specified below: ·

When requested by law enforcement.

When renewing vehicle registration.

When the vehicle is involved in a traffic collision.

Oscar Jimenez: â&#x20AC;&#x153; I just got knocked down by a rogue wave while Metal Detecting at the beach. :( I'm soaked and I think my Metal Detector and headphones are a total loss. Not a good way to start the weekend. :( Well... at least I'm ok, cold but fine. I'm on my way home to dry all my clothes and take a nice warm showerâ&#x20AC;?. Answer of the Editor:

Dear Oscar: That was a lesson already learned. Never go to the beach without having insured your metal detector. Also, when riding your bike should make sure to have insurance, preferably wide coverage. Greetings and good luck next time.

AAA: The average cost of auto insurance grew 5.7% last year

he average cost of auto insurance grew 5.7% last year, according to AAA's annual "Your Driving Cost" study released on April 6, 2010, and the average ownership costs per year to operate a medium-sized automobile increased 4.8% in the last 12 months, based on driving 15,000 miles a year, it costs 47.6 cents a mile, or $9,519 a year, the study said. AAA has published Your Driving Costs since 1950. That year, driving a car 10,000 miles cost 9 cents a mile, and gasoline sold for 27 cents per gallon. The increases can be attributed to rising prices for fuel, tires and insurance, the study said.

What’s Covered AAA’s analysis covers vehicles equipped with standard features and optional equipment including automatic transmission, air conditioning, power steering, antilock brakes and cruise control.

?Fuel Fuel costs were based on $2.603 per gallon, the late-2009 U.S. price from AAA’s Fuel Gauge Report, www.FuelGaugeReport.com. Fuel mileage is based on Environmental Protection Agency fuel-economy ratings weighted 60 percent city and 40 percent highway driving.

? Maintenance Costs include retail parts and labor for normal, routine maintenance as specified by the vehicle manufacturer. They also include the price of a comprehensive extended warranty with one warranty claim deductible of $100 and other wear-and-tear items that can be expected to require service during five years of operating the vehicle. Sales tax is included on a national average basis.

HARTFORD, Conn., Mar 22, 2010 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- The Hartford Financial Services Group, Inc., (NYSE: HIG), announced that it has been recognized by the Ethisphere Institute as one of the World's Most Ethical Companies for 2010. Out of a record number of nominations for the award, The Hartford secured a hard-earned spot on the list by going the extra mile, implementing upright business practices and initiatives that are instrumental to the company's success, benefit the community, and raise the bar for ethical standards within the industry. "The Hartford is pleased to be named one of the "World's Most Ethical Companies" for the third consecutive year," said Alan Kreczko, executive vice president and general counsel of The Hartford. "As The Hartford enters its third century, we remain deeply committed to ethical leadership. This commitment is sustained by employees at every level who continue to "do the right thing" in all situations. We work hard to achieve the highest standards of ethical business conduct and to preserve the trust we have earned with our customers, investors, business partners and government officials." Through in-depth research and a multi-step analysis, Ethisphere reviewed thousands of nominations from companies in over 100 countries and 36 industries in order to determine the winners. "The Hartford's promotion of a sound ethical environment shines within its industry and shows a clear understanding that operating under the highest standards for business behavior goes beyond goodwill and "lip-service" and is intimately linked to performance and profitability," said Alex Brigham, Executive Director of the Ethisphere Institute. "This year's World's Most Ethical Companies award was more competitive than ever, because companies realize that making ethics a priority is critical amidst a tough economic environment." Brigham added, "Compliance or ethics failures add up to more than fees, fines and penalties. The leadership distraction and turnover, forced alteration of a working

profit model and heightened scrutiny that result show: good ethics means better business." Over the last few years, The Hartford has engaged in a companywide, systematic effort to build an even stronger, more cohesive ethics and compliance program for its 28,000-employee organization. The expanded program addresses the evolving ethics and compliance standards in the highly regulated financial services industry and focuses on policies and practices to detect and prevent ethics and compliancerelated issues. The comprehensive, riskbased program enhances the company's ability to understand, assess and address the legal and regulatory risks facing each business area and the enterprise as a whole. This is the fourth year Ethisphere, a thinktank dedicated to the creation, advancement and sharing of best practices in business ethics, corporate social responsibility, anti-corruption and sustainability, has published the WME rankings, which appear in Ethisphere Magazine's Q1 issue. A sampling of other winners include Aflac, American Express, Campbell Soup, the Ford Motor Company, General Electric, Google, L'Oréal, Nike, PepsiCo, Starbucks, T-Mobile USA, UPS, Whole Foods Market and Xerox. The methodology for the WME ranking includes reviewing codes of ethics, litigation and regulatory infraction histories; evaluating the investment in innovation and sustainable business practices; looking at activities designed to improve corporate citizenship; and studying nominations from senior executives, industry peers, suppliers and customers.

Commissioner Poizner Urges All Californians to Evaluate Need for Earthquake Insurance Nearly 90% of homeowners and renters do not have

Commissioner Poizner provided the following disaster preparedness tips for California homeowners and renters:

earthquake insurance After the magnitude 7.2 earthquake in Mexico's Baja California Peninsula destroyed homes and buildings yesterday, millions of Californians are wondering if they are adequately prepared for disaster. Insurance Commissioner Steve Poizner urged all consumers to equip themselves and their homes for earthquakes and to evaluate their individual needs for earthquake insurance. "Sunday's earthquake reminded millions of Californians that our state is home to many devastating natural disasters," said Commissioner Poizner. "Because earthquakes can strike at any time without warning, it is vital for homeowners to prepare now for the possibility of a catastrophic loss. I urge every consumer to evaluate their individual need for earthquake insurance, and to regularly inventory their belongings to make sure their existing homeowners coverage is adequate." A 2008 National Association of Insurance Commissioners survey revealed that the majority of American consumers do not have the coverage necessary to protect themselves from specific types of losses that are not reimbursed under standard policies. Based on a data call by the Department of Insurance, almost 90% of homeowners and renters do not have earthquake insurance. Get important information about preparing for a disaster from the California Department of Insurance website at www.insurance.ca.gov. Or, call our toll-free consumer hotline at 1-800927-HELP.

Take an inventory of your valuables and belongings. Take photographs or a video of each room. This documentation will provide your insurance company with proof of your belongings and help to process claims more quickly in the event of disaster.

Keep sales receipts and/or canceled checks. Also note the model and serial numbers of the items in your home inventory.

As you acquire more valuables - jewelry, family heirlooms, antiques, art consider purchasing an additional "floater" or "rider" to your policy to cover these special items. These types of items typically are not covered by a basic homeowners or renter's insurance policy.

Remember to include in your home inventory those items you rarely use (e.g., holiday decorations, sports equipment, tools, etc.).

Store copies of all your insurance policies in a safe location away from your home that is easily accessible in case of disaster. You may want to store your policies and inventory in a waterproof, fireproof box or in a safe, remote location such as a bank safe deposit box. Consider leaving a copy of your inventory with relatives, friends or your insurance provider and store digital pictures in your email or on a website for easy retrieval.

Know what is and is not covered by your insurance policy. You might need additional protection depending on where you live. Make sure your policies are up to date. Contact your insurance provider annually to review and update your insurance policy.

Keep a readily available list of 24-hour contact information for each of your insurance providers.

Find out if your possessions are insured for the actual cash value or the replacement cost. Actual cash value is the amount it would take to repair or replace damage to your home or possessions after depreciation while replacement cost is the amount it would take to repair or replace your home or possessions without deducting for depreciation. Speak with your insurance provider to determine whether purchasing replacement coverage is worth the cost.

Speak with your insurance provider to find out if your policy covers additional living expenses for a temporary residence if you are unable to live in your home due to damage from a disaster.

Appraise your home periodically to make sure your insurance policy reflects home improvements or renovations. Contact your insurance provider to update your policy accordingly.

? Big "I" applauds senate banking committee for

passing crucial amendment to financial services bill ? Without new language, independent agency system would have unnecessarily been included in mandatory data collection.

WASHINGTON, D.C., March 23, 2010 - The Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of America (IIABA or the Big “I”) today thanked the U.S. Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs for including an extremely important amendment for insurance agents and brokers during the committee’s consideration of a manager’s amendment to the “Restoring America’s Financial Stability Act.” The amendment, filed by Senator Tester (D-Mont.), clarifies that the definition of “insurer” for mandatory data collection does not include insurance agents and agencies. The final bill passed the committee along party lines by a vote of 13 to 10. “Without this amendment, the proposed Office of National Insurance (ONI) would have inadvertently had the ability to require countless agents and brokers to produce any data and information demanded by ONI,” says Robert Rusbuldt, Big “I” president & CEO. “This amendment is critical to all agents and brokers across the country, and the Big ‘I’ greatly appreciates the hard work of Senate Banking Committee Chairman Chris Dodd (D-Conn.) and Sen. Jon Tester (D-Mont.).” The underlying bill contains 11 titles, one of which would create the ONI within the U.S. Treasury Department to address the following two major areas that have been the focus of criticisms of state insurance regulation: 1. The lack of a knowledge base or informational source in Washington, D.C. (something especially evident following the 9/11 attacks and Hurricane Katrina); and

2. The challenges state insurance regulators occasionally face to effectively represent the United States in multilateral insurance discussions or to enter into binding international agreements. “While the Big ‘I’ believes that the state regulatory system should be preserved and reformed, it has become evident that the state system needs assistance to effectively address some inefficiencies that exist today in the regulation of insurance,” says Charles Symington, Big “I” senior vice president of government affairs. “The Big ‘I’ has long supported the use of targeted federal legislation to help reform the state system without creating a federal regulator, and we believe this insurance informational office adheres to these principles.” Also included in this legislation, and supported by the Big “I,” is the “Nonadmitted and Reinsurance Reform Act,” which aims to streamline the regulation of surplus lines insurance and reinsurance through state-based reforms.Almost 500 amendments were filed in anticipation of the markup, but none

were offered except for the manager's amendment. Many other amendments could come up during consideration on the Senate floor. The Big “I” is encouraged by the progress made in revising the bill to date and looks forward to working with members of the Banking Committee as this bill is further refined and improved such as the resolution mechanism’s inappropriate application to property casualty insurers and some issues with duplicity between the ONI and a newly created Office of Financial Research. Founded in 1896, the Big “I” is the nation’s oldest and largest national association of independent insurance agents and brokers, representing a network of more than 300,000 agents, brokers and their employees nationally. Its members are businesses that offer customers a choice of policies from a variety of insurance companies. Independent agents and brokers offer all lines of insurance—property, casualty, life, health, employee benefit plans and retirement products.

What does my credit rating have to do with purchasing insurance? Credit scores are based on an analysis of an individual’s credit history. Insurers often generate a numerical ranking based on a person’s credit history, known as an “insurance score,” when underwriting and setting the rates for insurance policies. Actuarial studies show that how a person manages his or her financial affairs, which is what an insurance score indicates, is a good predictor of insurance claims. Insurance scores are used to help insurers differentiate between lower and higher insurance risks and thus charge a premium equal to the risk they are assuming. Statistically, people who have a poor insurance score are more likely to file a claim. Insurance Information Institute: improving public understanding of insurance
