FAQs
We consider several factors when determining your premiums, including:
- How many claims you’ve submitted in the past
- Information about you (e.g., how long you’ve been a licensed driver)
- Traffic violations (e.g., speeding tickets)
- The vehicle you drive (e.g., make, model, and year)
A deductible is the amount that you agree to pay (out of pocket) for claims-related expenses before your insurance company pays for the remaining costs.
Let’s say you have an accident and the total approved cost to repair damages is $5,000. If you chose a $500 deductible when you purchased your policy, you would need to pay for the first $500 worth of expenses. Economical would cover the remaining $4,500 in eligible expenses.
TIP: Choosing a higher deductible will lower your insurance premium. Just be prepared to pay for any costs up to that deductible amount when you need to make a claim.
We recommend reviewing your policy at least once a year, but there are certain times when you need to contact your group’s broker to officially update it:
- When your address has changed
- Any time you buy another vehicle
- When there’s an additional licensed driver in your household
- If you’ve changed how you use your vehicle (e.g., for business)
