I was shopping around for insurance for my second car and found that the "DCPD" option with 0 deductible makes up for 1/3 of the insurance's price. Adding a deductible wipes out at least half of that cost.
After doing some research I found that it essentially means that your own insurance will take care of all the business for you when you get into an accident. My questions are:
- When would having a deductible on DCPD make sense?
- Does having a deductible mean that I will still need to pay X amount of whatever deductible I put even if I'm 100% not at fault?
- If question 2 is true, would it be possible to go directly through the other driver's insurance company to save on the deductible?
