Coverage provided by insurance pertains to the protection extended to the insured automobile and those who ride therein. It is composed of either comprehensive or collision types of coverage policy. Comprehensive coverage means just that, total coverage of those frightfully possible damages possible in car accidents or natural events to the automobile and its' passengers. Comprehensive coverage involves personal injury protection and medical payments.

The personal injury protection involves insurance to cover personal injury involved from operating or riding in the vehicle at the time of an accident. It will also cover the loss of wages from lost work due to medical treatment. Medical payments cover medical costs not covered by the PIP. Collision coverage involves only the repair of the damaged automobile. Once collision was based upon whoever was the "victimized" car; whichever car was wronged was the vehicle covered by collision insurance.

This older concept was changed when most states adopted a "no fault" policy in collision coverage. Legal liability is often combined in the collision rider. This particular insurance covers injury to both passengers and the automobile of the other party in an accident. Another new coverage is GAP insurance. This is supposed to protect the driver from any loss in the depreciation of the vehicle. It would be initiated if a vehicle should be replaced and the money received from the insurance policy fail to equal the value of a replacement vehicle.
