Recently I am applying to property & casualty actuarial positions, hence I wanna learn about auto insurance coverages. Your video is really of great help to me, it is interesting how is so different in every state too. Thank you very much!
Insurance for teenagers is ridiculous. I checked a couple years ago and it would have been 120 per month, it’s now 67 per month for me since I turned 21
Dude fuck this I’m 21 years old living in Connecticut and they are trying to charge me 300-600 everywhere I look for full coverage and I need full coverage for my fucking finance. Fuck this what are humans supposed to do that don’t have the luxury of a mom or dad to cosign, fuck this shit.
@@WilsonAbrego your not wrong recently my friends ditch school to do pranks in a mall and they were racing and one of them swerve of the road ( they just swerved off the road on an empty highway soo no one was hurt or arrested , they didn’t flip or crash or anything)
They will still sue you, but your insurance company will provide an attorney to defend you. The insurance will pay any judgement against you, up to the amount of the $ limit you have chosen. Usually the insurance will pay any excess amount above your policy limit, if that insurance company had the opportunity to settle the matter pre-suit for an amount within your policy limit.
It's all a scam. Let's use averages here and say you own a car for 10 years and have paid 200 dollars a month for insurance. You have paid nearly 25 grand to an insurance company. Let's say you do have an incident, well even though you have given them all those thousands of dollars, they will still raise your rate after an incident and charge you a deductible. I've given the same insurance company nearly 50 000 dollars in my life time so far for vehicles and in that period have made 2 claims not totalling 5 grand in damage, yet the rates will go up the second I have to use a sliver of that money. So they bag nearly 50 grand and I'm essentially paying for the incident slowly with more money via them raising rates. Huge scam. Every now and then a car gets totalled or stolen and they have to pay up, but how many times have you ever totalled a car or had one stolen?
You are accounting for damage only to YOUR car. If you hit a pedestrian, or a car in a way someone is even *slightly* injured, you will owe *at least* $100k in liabilities. You can always choose not to pay for collision/comprehensive, as that coverage is only for YOUR CAR. But you definitely need liability, property, and UI/UIM coverage.
@@Shamusmusic416 statistically, most people don't hit other people. if *even* 10% of drivers hit other people, insurance companies won't even exist in first place... "Accident" is called "accident" because it can, unfortunately, happen to anyone at anytime. you are traveling normally and a kid runs in front of the car. if you happen to be in an accident that costs $500k and you don't have insurance to settle claim, lawyers will do **ANYTHING** to get the money out of you. **ANYTHING**. Take your property, take a chunk for annual income for 20 years, take your 401k, savings, stocks etc. Also, liability and UI/UIM is cheap af anyways, even for $500k/1M. You can even get a cheap af umbrella to cover on top of these.
@@Shamusmusic416 That's the point of insurance. You don't need it until you do then you'll be grateful you bought it especially if you have capital where people can sue you.
I had just come over railroad tracks and was driving accross the street that ran parallel to the tracks. A person stopped on that street then left her stop sign and ran into my car, she admitted she caused the accident in the police report. I told my provider, they told me that since I had liability insurance I was on my own and they would not talk to me. The other drivers insurance compamy kept blaming me for the accident and told me to get lost. It took me a month and a half before I got my car to the repair shop.
I can tell you from experience that if you do not have a name brand/reputable insurance company and opt for for a 3rd rate insurance company instead, when it comes to a claim and you have to deal with that 3rd rate insurance company, it’s a nightmare. Better off paying a little more for a reputable company.
Thank you! Great Channel - Great content!! I would recommend showing graphic information (like quote samples) in the video that will really help visual learners like myself.
Hi, I really don't reside in Florida anymore because I'm being stationed in Groton CT. I'm only 19 years old and the only thing im still trying to get at is buying a decent vehicle but I don't have any credit at all whatsoever. I do plan on buying it in cash and making monthly payments for a decent vehicle
@TheSuperanimedrawer yo I completely forgot about this, well to update ya I have a 2013 subaru legacy, paid off now, and recently I just got a '13 camaro SS, you were right about the credit card, got one, paid it off (when I could) built good credit and now I'm just having fun. Thank you again for the advice man
The Low limits for insurance is just flat out stupid !!! I make sure I have high coverage on all our auto's . The way people have been for at least the last decade or longer , people are seriously sue happy and will always try to sue you for more than everything you have and then some !!! Also make darn sure you have a dash-cam in everyone of your vehicle's , very important !!!!!! Today's vehicle's are quite expensive on new cheap vehicle's and ridiculous for the majority of vehicle's !! Also people get high priced Lawyer's or Attorneys to get everything you have and more of what you don't already have !!! It only takes one accident and you're broke for life !!! They will garnish or take all the money you earn in the future too !!! If you have a good or great driving record and are older , the high coverage insurance is really not bad at all . To protect your driving record is to have a dash-cam !!! To prove your innocence as it has saved us big time from scammers !!! People these days Can't drive worth a darn and are out to get you !!! I don't and won't drive or own anything brand new , relatively new or high priced vehicle's as that makes you a Freaken target !!!! They Are Out To Get You These Days !!!
Big time... if you hit someone or someone hit you, they raise your rate.. then they put a negative report on your file with lexis nexis .. biggest scam
I recently changed auto insurance from State Farm to Progressive. I went from 50/100 to 30/60 Liability bodily injury coverage in Texas. We are in our 60’s, and doesn’t drive much. Can you give us some advice?
Great video! I understand that reporting a claim does have an impact in the policy premium. Although does is affect the same way when it is at fault versus not at fault?
Hi Mark. Thank you for the educating videos! I'm 26 years old and planning to have a new 2021 Honda Insight (this is gonna be my first car since I just relocated to the US). I now live in Fremont, CA. What are the best options I have, Mark?
Sir, good channel but, I was a State Farm insurance customer for over 35 years and State Farm Insurance cut Me. The reason being too many claims on roadside request. Now, every auto insurance Company I change to, the first six months are fine than the last six months of the year they increase my rates. I had check with All State insurance on my Zip code regarding accidents. The red zone!!! E-commerce and Rideshare drivers! This is only my opinion. Larry
So I just bought my first car and need to get insurance. So I was told to do 100/300/100 Because that’s show that I want to protect my assets more showing I’m a responsible driver. I’m not sure what all those numbers and shit really mean. Based off the video and what I heard, they are just the amounts that will cover you and other people in an accident. Anyway I live in Maryland. I’m just super stressed because New Jersey messed the title up and put 270k miles instead of 207k and I’m worried the odometer got pushed. But NJ says it’s a clean title. Idk I’m just stressing about nothing which is making it impossible for me to worry about my insurance. Also would you think it’d be best for me to get a plan with my mom on her already existing one or start my new, own insurance? I’m just so young and dumb and don’t know anything cause we never get taught in school about this. I don’t want to end up fucking myself over when I’m young cause I didn’t know any better. I was going to call progressive, Geico, and all state. Those are the three I got so far.. any more recommendations or advice y’all could give me would be very very much appreciated.
Cost wise it’s most likely less expensive under you mom. That’s what I would do if it is an option. It can’t hurt to get a quote from Geico to see. Yes the Liability limits are coverage you carry for others if you hurt them. 100/300 = $100,000 per person up to $300,000 per accident. $100,000 for property damage if you are at fault and damage someone’s car/property.
Appreciate all the info you are providing in this video. I've been looking into car insurance more recently because my wife just got into a bit of an accident that was at fault, but no other car was involved. We have had progressive for the past 4-5 years and they've been great, I'm wondering if you'd recommend looking at anything else for the state of Maine? That's were we are located right now. Also maybe a slightly unrelated question but I haven't been able to find a good answer - typically when you have $3-7k in damages that need to be repaired how much does your insurance premium go up? Is it double your current premium? 20% more? Just looking for a ball park number. Does the amount you spent on the fixes/repairs contribute to how much the next 6 month premium goes up or not? Thanks for any insights you can provide!
Thanks for the comments. I’m glad I’ve been helpful. It’s hard to say accurately how much it will go up since each state and company have their own rules but in most cases 15-20% seems typical. In Maine it tends to jump more than that. Also keep in mind the length. Some companies only go back 3 years vs 5. In 3 years you may be better of switching if the time comes.
@@ThinkInsurance Incredible. Thank you for your thoughts here. That's not too bad of a jump. Obviously we will see what actually happens but it's nice to know. And great info about switching potentially. Keep up the great content, learned a lot from your videos so far! The other things that are hard to wrap my head around are health insurance, dental etc. and how that all works and what's the best options at the best prices!
I've always want to start my own car insurance company It would not discriminate based on gender, age, where you live, tickets or accidents Liability rates would be based only on the type of the vehicle, safety features, and amount of driving collision would be based only on the value of your vehicle. and comprehensive would be based only on where you park it: Garage, outside parking space, or on the street.
Hey Mark really liked the video. I had a few questions and was wondering if I would be able to call you and ask you a few if you had a moment to spare. I’m turning 25 in March and currently looking for a new insurance company while writing this. I’m not sure exactly what route to take and what coverage I would necessarily need. The videos have been very helpful and I understand the main basic concepts for auto insurance but like I said I just have a few questions. I would appreciate it if it was possible to talk with you over phone. Please let me know if it’s possible ?
Great video…I learn so much. I’m from Bronx, NY someone hit my parked car in the street and damaged the tire, door and mirror. I only have liability should I contact my insurance, do they help fixing the damage. One more thing, can I request to see security surveillance from a shelter in front of where they hit my car because I don’t know who hit my car. Any reply would be greatly appreciated🙏🏻
If you don’t have Comprehensive and/or Collision or, uninsured motorist property damage, then there’s not much your insurance can do. It could hurt to ask for the surveillance footage but I personally would notify my insurance, especially, since there’s nothing they can help with.
What insurance do you recommend i go with here in Las Vegas? I will be getting a brand new 4 runner and shopping around for insurance. Got a quote from AAA. I'm new to Vegas. Thank you for the great video.
thanks you 🙏🏼. I can’t recall if I did make a work from home video. The main part is if you’re driving less miles, let your insurance know. It might save you some $
Hi there, Mark! Thanks for the informative video. I went ahead and subscribed to your channel. I'm 24 and will be turning 25 in the summer. I'm in the process of moving from Illinois to Florida. I'm realizing how expensive FL car insurance is and trying to understand what coverage I actually need. I have a clean driving record, except for a speeding ticket I got several years ago. This May, the speeding ticket will be 3 years old and hopefully will no longer impact my insurance rates. Do you have any auto insurance company recommendations based on my situation? Any other advice you have would also be helpful. I really appreciate your time!
Thank you. I recently did a “best home insurance in Virginia” video. If you want to talk to someone, a partner of mine, Devin, can help. If you fill out the quote form in the description, that will send him your contact info.
I have full windshield coverage, what if I claim insurance for a windshield replacement, then 3 weeks later a big rock hits it and I need to replace it again, can I just claim it again to get it replaced or do I have to wait a certain time?
Sheeee 🫣. That sucks. Yes you can claim it again, there is no restriction on how long you have to wait if you need to file another claim. Just make sure with your agent if there will be any impact on your renewal. Sometimes there is none, others times it can affect your renewal or claims free discount if you have one. So what’s best for you
Hi. Thanks for all the info you providing. Can you please answer my question? If you have an accident and assume that its your fault, would you pay $800- $900 from your pocket for the cost of damage of other's car? Or would you just claim it to your insurance? It has recenly happened to me and I have no idea if i just pay cash or go with insurance. The other person said he would have his car doors replaced which would cost about $2000-$2500 if we go with insurance. The auto shop that i know says that they can fix the damage with the price only if i pay cash and the other person said it is up to me whether i pay cash or go with insurance to fix his car. He said he would be okay as long as the damage of his car repaired well. Do you think...... Paying cash is better? Or JUST go with insurance? And my car has some dent as well and if my cars' damage repaired by insurance, do i need to pay the deductible as its most likely my fault? And it affects my premium? Please answer your opinion! THANK YOU SO MUCH.
If this is your first occurrence in the past 5 years I would find out if your insurance plan includes accident forgiveness. If so and you have a clean history, I would file the claim. If you’ve had multiple claims then I personally would consider paying it out of pocket. It’s hard to give you an exact answer since each state is different and your history etc… Personally I would lean towards filing a claim if it’s someone you don’t know and they mentioned replacing the doors. They could potentially go after your insurance later saying it wasn’t repaired properly then you’re stuck with both problems. You’re only going to pay the deductible if you’re repairing your car, not the other persons.
In OH they don’t have PIP. They do med pay which is usually no more than $10,000 per person if they carry it at all. They default heavily on their BI limits
Your renters policy likely has liability coverage but it likely excludes negligence. If you drove without insurance, I expect it won’t protect you. You need an auto policy to cover your liability and property damage for that situation
May i ask in Oklahoma my insurance told me i dont need Un-insured motorist ... i got high courage with everything else. Ii have always been told to get Un-insured motorist
It’s your call to what you’re willing to pay but If that’s the value, I personally would not carry it unless the additional cost was less than $80/month. If you can afford to replace it then it’s worth checking out if you would carry collision.
If by both sides you mean comprehensive and Collision, I personally wouldn’t do it, depending on the value of the car. 2009 or older I start to question if it’s worth having comprehensive and collision. Used cars are worth more today than they were before you would want to research the value of your car and decide if it’s worth the extra cost to you.
I’m 18 I want to buy a car out the dealership my insurance well be 550 a month it’s a 33k plus taxes 36k the car, (talking about the insurance now) would I only have to pay 550 nothing else or pay 550 and a down payment and also if I do the 6 months would I need to put any money down or will I jus need to wait until the 6 months and pay or do I have to pay the 6 months of insurance that same day I buy it I live in California
I’ve been driving for over 20 years and never filed a comprehensive claim. My windshield cracked due to extreme heat in Florida the past couple of months and I filed a claim to have the windshield replaced. Then coincidentally a rock hit my daughters windshield and cracked it, a few months later. In the state of Florida you do not have to pay the deductible if you have comprehensive coverage, for a windshield replacement or repair. So I’m thinking cool a “free” windshield replacement, although I am paying monthly for this coverage. Policy renews and they increase my premiums because I had two claims. This is scammy bullshit. Silly stupid me.
So you’re telling me if my insurance doesn’t cover someone’s medical bills they can sue me for the rest, yet I’m to pay for higher insurance to cover some reckless uninsured driver? Wtf
It’s messed up but it makes sense. If I was at fault and hurt someone and the hospital bill was $300,000 but I chose to only have $250,000 coverage. Who’s responsible to pay the rest?
Forced car insurance is Completely unconstitutional. 4th amendment guarantees your right to travel. No politician has the authority to force you to buy ANY product or service.
it’s not “forced” at the federal level. it’s state laws that govern these car insurance laws. that’s why it’s actually legal to drive uninsured in Virginia.

What’s the best insurance to go with in Pennsylvannia
Great video…I learn so much. I’m from Bronx, NY someone hit my parked car in the street and damaged the tire, door and mirror. I only have liability should I contact my insurance, do they help fixing the damage. One more thing, can I request to see security surveillance from a shelter in front of where they hit my car because I don’t know who hit my car. Any reply would be greatly appreciated🙏🏻
If you don’t have Comprehensive and/or Collision or, uninsured motorist property damage, then there’s not much your insurance can do. It could hurt to ask for the surveillance footage but I personally would notify my insurance, especially, since there’s nothing they can help with.
@@ThinkInsurance ...Thank you for your reply, it means so much to me. Have a great day🙏
Since car insurance is mandatory, it should be tax deductible.
What insurance do you recommend i go with here in Las Vegas? I will be getting a brand new 4 runner and shopping around for insurance. Got a quote from AAA. I'm new to Vegas. Thank you for the great video.
THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!!

This was super helpful. Thank you.
Great video! Is there a video that recommends an insurance for people that work from home?
thanks you 🙏🏼. I can’t recall if I did make a work from home video. The main part is if you’re driving less miles, let your insurance know. It might save you some $
Thank you.
You're welcome. I'm glad this was helpful

When people talk about "liability," is that Bodily Injury and Property Damage ?
Yes. It’s what you’re liable for you hurt someone or damage their car.
interesting..thanks for sharing.
Hi there, Mark! Thanks for the informative video. I went ahead and subscribed to your channel. I'm 24 and will be turning 25 in the summer. I'm in the process of moving from Illinois to Florida. I'm realizing how expensive FL car insurance is and trying to understand what coverage I actually need. I have a clean driving record, except for a speeding ticket I got several years ago. This May, the speeding ticket will be 3 years old and hopefully will no longer impact my insurance rates. Do you have any auto insurance company recommendations based on my situation? Any other advice you have would also be helpful. I really appreciate your time!
Thanks for reaching out. I have a video on my channel about FL. Two companies I would check are State Farm and Allstate.

Good Evening, Hello I love your video very helpful! I was wondering what's the best insurance I should choose living in Virginia? I'm new to all this.
Thank you. I recently did a “best home insurance in Virginia” video.
If you want to talk to someone, a partner of mine, Devin, can help. If you fill out the quote form in the description, that will send him your contact info.
The reason people don't get car insurance in Alabama is they don't want to register Vin numbers for switched license plates on cars.
Great tips Mark. Keep it up ✌
I have full windshield coverage, what if I claim insurance for a windshield replacement, then 3 weeks later a big rock hits it and I need to replace it again, can I just claim it again to get it replaced or do I have to wait a certain time?
Sheeee 🫣. That sucks. Yes you can claim it again, there is no restriction on how long you have to wait if you need to file another claim.
Just make sure with your agent if there will be any impact on your renewal. Sometimes there is none, others times it can affect your renewal or claims free discount if you have one. So what’s best for you
thsnk you!
Hi. Thanks for all the info you providing.
Can you please answer my question?
If you have an accident and assume that its your fault, would you pay $800- $900 from your pocket for the cost of damage of other's car? Or would you just claim it to your insurance?
It has recenly happened to me and I have no idea if i just pay cash or go with insurance. The other person said he would have his car doors replaced which would cost about $2000-$2500 if we go with insurance.
The auto shop that i know says that they can fix the damage with the price only if i pay cash and the other person said it is up to me whether i pay cash or go with insurance to fix his car. He said he would be okay as long as the damage of his car repaired well.
Do you think...... Paying cash is better? Or JUST go with insurance?
And my car has some dent as well and if my cars' damage repaired by insurance, do i need to pay the deductible as its most likely my fault? And it affects my premium?
Please answer your opinion!
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
If this is your first occurrence in the past 5 years I would find out if your insurance plan includes accident forgiveness. If so and you have a clean history, I would file the claim.
If you’ve had multiple claims then I personally would consider paying it out of pocket. It’s hard to give you an exact answer since each state is different and your history etc…
Personally I would lean towards filing a claim if it’s someone you don’t know and they mentioned replacing the doors. They could potentially go after your insurance later saying it wasn’t repaired properly then you’re stuck with both problems.
You’re only going to pay the deductible if you’re repairing your car, not the other persons.
Nice video!
thank you
You’re welcome

What is the difference of Michigan PIP versus PIP in any other state?
Actually more specifically, what happens when someone gets seriously injured in a car accident in Ohio versus Michigan?
In OH they don’t have PIP. They do med pay which is usually no more than $10,000 per person if they carry it at all.
They default heavily on their BI limits
Hello. What insurance do you recommend for Virginia????
Great video
What happens if my car insurance ended2 months before I got into an accident hit 3 parked cars. But I had renters insurance
Your renters policy likely has liability coverage but it likely excludes negligence. If you drove without insurance, I expect it won’t protect you.
You need an auto policy to cover your liability and property damage for that situation
May i ask in Oklahoma my insurance told me i dont need Un-insured motorist ... i got high courage with everything else. Ii have always been told to get Un-insured motorist
I don’t understand why they would say you don’t need uninsured motorist? If given the option, I personally would add it.
@@ThinkInsurance Thank U I think so to with all people coming here with no insurance or knowing how to drive very good . Need classes
My car value is $2500 it’s a 2010 ford focus with 205,000 miles on it is it worth it to get collision insurance add to my policy
It’s your call to what you’re willing to pay but If that’s the value, I personally would not carry it unless the additional cost was less than $80/month.
If you can afford to replace it then it’s worth checking out if you would carry collision.
@@ThinkInsurance thanks is actually $75 more monthly with $500 out of pocket
Cheapest and best for Massachusetts?
Yes, You insure your car for 60K somehow the insurance will pay you only 20K if is totaled. Argue wear ant tear and age of the vehicle.
Hello sir, I looking Car Insurances
this is not easy to follow at all
A 15 years old car, is it worth to cover it for both sides?
If by both sides you mean comprehensive and Collision, I personally wouldn’t do it, depending on the value of the car.
2009 or older I start to question if it’s worth having comprehensive and collision. Used cars are worth more today than they were before you would want to research the value of your car and decide if it’s worth the extra cost to you.
@@ThinkInsurance Where can I look for value of my vehicule?
Nada.com and kbb.com are what most insurance companies compare. Also local dealerships for how much they would sell your car.
I live In Louisiana 45 years old looking for auto and home insurance
I’m 18 I want to buy a car out the dealership my insurance well be 550 a month it’s a 33k plus taxes 36k the car, (talking about the insurance now) would I only have to pay 550 nothing else or pay 550 and a down payment and also if I do the 6 months would I need to put any money down or will I jus need to wait until the 6 months and pay or do I have to pay the 6 months of insurance that same day I buy it I live in California
Your wasting your money doing all that if you’ll be paying for the car and insurance
Good video
Thanks

How I'm still paying 100s of dollars a month and i don't got any accidents on my record
I’ve been driving for over 20 years and never filed a comprehensive claim. My windshield cracked due to extreme heat in Florida the past couple of months and I filed a claim to have the windshield replaced. Then coincidentally a rock hit my daughters windshield and cracked it, a few months later. In the state of Florida you do not have to pay the deductible if you have comprehensive coverage, for a windshield replacement or repair.
So I’m thinking cool a “free” windshield replacement, although I am paying monthly for this coverage. Policy renews and they increase my premiums because I had two claims. This is scammy bullshit.
Silly stupid me.
nice viedo

So you’re telling me if my insurance doesn’t cover someone’s medical bills they can sue me for the rest, yet I’m to pay for higher insurance to cover some reckless uninsured driver? Wtf
It’s messed up but it makes sense. If I was at fault and hurt someone and the hospital bill was $300,000 but I chose to only have $250,000 coverage. Who’s responsible to pay the rest?
If a world wide plague happens, is that an act of God so it is covered by my car insurance?
If the plague affects your car, yes
ok ok...
It was all good until you said full coverage. That is not an actual coverage🤣

Forced car insurance is Completely unconstitutional. 4th amendment guarantees your right to travel. No politician has the authority to force you to buy ANY product or service.
what an we do about it? real Q.
@@deyanideydreaming not a damn thing because it’s a business and businesses want money.
it’s not “forced” at the federal level. it’s state laws that govern these car insurance laws. that’s why it’s actually legal to drive uninsured in Virginia.
nice
