Why use an independent agent like CSIS?Some consumers are comfortable managing their own insurance needs. Others prefer the personal service and attention that an inde-pendent agent provides. Here are a few exam-ples of what a trusted agent can offer.

They know the landscape - Since independent agents often represent numerous insurance companies, they know exactly what options are available in the market. With countless coverage options available to drivers, there is nothing more valuable than a consultative agent who considers consumers’ best inter-ests when shopping for the best policy. You may have a special need or may be eligible for unique discounts that only certain carriers offer. Good savings can be found - inclu-ding discounts and credits for being a good student, driving a hybrid vehicle, having multiple cars on a policy or possessing anti-theft systems - and agents can help you take advantage of these discounts.

They know you and your family - Every insu-rance situation is different. Many factors are involved in determining the proper coverage. The ultimate purpose of insurance is to pro-tect you, your family and your assets should the worst happen. By having an established relationship with an agent, you will be in the best position to get the proper policy, protec-tion and price to meet your unique situation. If you’re just now embarking on the agent relationship, you should be asked probing questions that lead to proper coverage for you. Remember, it’s not always about finding the lowest premium; it’s about having the right coverage to fit your needs.

They can help answer questions - Let’s face it: Insurance can be a complex subject. Many consumers have questions about insurance - from the very basic to the complicated - that they are afraid to ask. But when it comes to protecting your family and assets, no question should go unasked, no matter how basic it is. Your independent agent has the expertise and can take the time to make sure you unders-tand all aspects of your policy. Bottom line: having a conversation is a great way to learn.

They can manage multiple policies - Auto insu-rance is just one form of protection, but home, umbrella, flood, and other personal insurance products are equally important. What’s more, savings can be realized by combining two or more insurance policies under the same ca-rrier. Additionally, you’ll have one main con-tact person for all your insurance needs.

By having an established relationship with an agent, you will be in the best position to get the proper policy, pro-tection and price to meet your unique situation.

3discounts to ridersNew gear? Update your policy.

Your CSIS motorcycle policy covers up to $3,000 in custom parts and equipment - but you have to make sure each piece of equipment is listed on your policy. Any time you buy new leathers or safety equipment or customize your bike, update our service representatives before you head out on the highway.

Nine out of 10 motorcycle accidents involve untra-ined riders.

When you’re controlling this much force, it’s essential to have complete command of your machine. More than 90 percent of riders involved in accidents haven’t taken a formal motorcycle driving course.

Know your bike’s capabilities - how it performs in a curve or on slick roads and how quickly it can stop. Errors like overbraking, driving too fast or undercornering are major factors in many solo accidents.

CSIS offers discounts to riders who attend the Mo-torcycle Safety Foundation’s safe riding courses or are active in one of 25 approved groups that pro-mote safe riding. Do both those things and you can reduce your premium by up to 10 percent.

In a crash, the SUV wins.

When cars and motorcycles collide, it’s usua-lly because the driver of the car failed to see the cyclist. With more SUVs on the road, it’s even more critical to take extra steps to become more visible. Use your headlamps - both night and day - and wear yellow, red or orange jackets to make yourself easy to see. Make a point of positioning yourself in your lane for visibility.

Remember: Ride sober.

Driving impaired is more deadly for bikers than other drivers. In fact, more than half of all motorcycle deaths occur when the rider has been drinking.

Forty years ago...This kind of motorcycles we was insuranced at the 70’s decade when CSIS was founded. After forty years, we still here in the same place, working for you like de first day.

Many of those bikes don’t runs anymore, but we do. CSIS-College Student Insurance Service, Inc. Toll-Free: 1-800-761-3811

No one’s too old to wear a helmet.

A motorcycle rider not wearing a helmet is fi ve times more likely to sustain a critical head injury in a crash. Buy a full-face hel-met for the best protection for your head and eyes. Wear other protective gear as well: heavy leather or synthetic gloves, long pants and jacket and over-the-ankle leather boots.
