How old do you have to be to get a drivers license in NJ?
The deductible (Collison and comprehensive) is simply the amount of payment that you have to make in the event of an accident or loss. Typically, the higher you elect to pay, the lower the premiums. If for example, you are hit by another car, from behind and it is clearly the other driver's fault, with zero deductible, the insurance company will give you the entire amount necessary to repair the car (in their estimation); in the same case, with $100 deductible, you would be responsible for the first $100 of the repair costs, and the same with other amounts.Effect of license suspension on insurance?
As a rule of thumb, the younger the driver, the higher deductible is desireable, since younger driver insurance is more costly than that of mature drivers (don't get me started on THAT one!), and the premium is lower. Male young drivers pay the highest premiums, with female young drivers paying the second highest. I hope I've cleared up the problem.
By the bye, GEICO, Allstate, State Farm and all of the major companies usually offer the best coverage; the little guys, while offering lower premiums, also offer less coverage. I'd steer clear of the guys who send insurance coverage via pop-ups on the 'puter, and the "late night" hucksters who offer to "beat any other company's coverage or we'll give you 'X' number of dollars".

Collision insurance "fixes" your car if you get in accident and the accident is your fault. If you get in accident and it isn't your fault, then the other drivers liability insurance pays. Sometimes it can take forever to get a claim paid, so if you want your car fixed ASAP - you might use your collision insurance to pay first, then have your insurance collect from the other driver.
Comprehensive insurance fixes your car if something happens to it that isn't a vehicle accident. You need comprehensive for the things like a broken windshield, tree falls on your car, car gets stolen - lots of things require comprehensive.

The deductible is how much you pay out of your pocket before the insurance pays. If you have a $1,000 deductible and you have $10,000 damage to your car - you pay $1000 and the insurance company pays $9,000. The higher the deductible, the lower your payment will be.
A collision deduct is for when you hit another car. usually 500 to 1000. A comprehensive deduct is used if your car was stollen or damage not from an accident (replacing a windshield because of cracks or chips) usually 100 to 500. Also remember the higher the deduct the lower he monthly rates. I also recommend always have rental car coverage on the policy. just in case an uninsured hits you.

The higher the deductible, the lower your premium. The deductible, is the amount you will pay, before your insurance kicks in, say you get in a wreck, there is 4500 dollars in damage, you carry 500 deductible for collisions, that means you will be responsible for the first 500 dollars of work, insurance covers the rest.A deductible is simply this: the amount you will pay BEFORE the insurance company pays. So if you select a $500 deductible and your total damages are $1000, you agree to pay the first $500 in damages, the insurance pays the remaining $500.
