Am I covered if I drive
someone else's vehicle?
In general, the insurance goes with the car. For example, if you have
an accident while driving someone else's car, the car owner's insurance
would apply first toward damages. Your auto insurance would generally
apply in the event the owner of the vehicle had no auto insurance or did
not have enough auto insurance to pay the damages

What does
"full coverage" mean?
This term - full coverage - generally means that the insurance policy
has both liability coverage and coverage for damage to your vehicle. The
term full coverage does not mean that everything is covered no matter
what happens.

Will my policy be
canceled if I have an accident?
Typically, being in an accident will not cause your policy
to be canceled. However, after the facts of the situation are reviewed,
you may be required to pay a higher premium for your policy upon renewal.

If
I rent a car, do I have coverage?
Rental car coverage under a private passenger policy
varies state by state. Car rental companies may charge daily fees for
"CDW" coverage (which means their insurance will pay for all
damages covered in your rental agreement). Your McGann agent will advise
you as to the type of auto coverage your policy has.

What
can I do to keep my auto premiums down?
Your McGann insurance agent will show you how you can save
money on your auto premiums. A few ways are:
Check to see if you're eligible for any discounts such as claim-free,
driver education, auto/home or multi-car.
Advise you as to increasing your deductible can lower your premium.

If I have
a loss due to fire, lightning, tornadoes, wind storms, hail, explosions,
smoke, vandalism and theft, am I covered?
Yes. Typically, your homeowners insurance covers a large number of perils,
including all those listed. There are some limits, however, on the amount
of insurance you have. Consult with your McGann Insurance agent to find
out about your coverages.

Does
Homeowners' insurance provide protection against floods?
No. Flood insurance is only available from the National Flood Insurance
program. Ask your McGann insurance agent about flood insurance, and if
you need it.

A neighbor
slips on my sidewalk and threatens to take me to court for damages. Does
my homeowners' policy protect me?
Yes it will. If the accident is the result of your negligence, your Homeowners'
insurance will pay for damages. It will also pay for the legal costs of
defending you against a claim. Also, the medical payments, included as
part of your homeowners' policy, will cover medical expenses arising from
an injury to a neighbor or guest. Contact your McGann insurance agent
to review your policy limits to help ensure you have adequate coverage.

Is my jewelry
covered by my homeowners' policy?
Within your homeowners' policy, there is limited, standard coverage available
for your jewelry. In most cases, you will need to purchase a Personal
Articles Floater, which extends protection for your jewelry when its value
is higher than the limits stated in your homeowners' policy. Your McGann
Insurance agent will help determine if you need to purchase Floater coverage.
