Hi, I know the insurance coverage depends on each person's needs and situation, however I figure since I am very unfamiliar with car insurance terminologies, I should ask for more clarification. Our family lives in Florida. We have Allstate car insurance policy for 3 cars, and we look to save some money on the premium. The uninsured motorists coverage is $10000/$20000 per person/accident per car, and it costs us $150 in total every 6 months (btw, the total premium for 3 cars is a little over $1100). Our agent advises that since we have health insurance, we should drop the uninsured coverage, since it only covers injuries, not property damage.
Both me and my mother have $5000 deductible on our health insurance, so if we got hospitalized it is quite a bit of money. However, I don't even know if we ever need to utilize that uninsured motorist thing, what kind of hassle insurance companies like Allstate would cause us. Either way, I don't think I get the complete picture here. It would be great to save some money, but I am not sure it's worth it. Can you share with me your opinions? Thank you very much!
