In my car insurance policy, what is a deductible?

Auto Insurance Definitions: Deductible

In your policy, you determine the amount of the car insurance deductibles you pay in the event of a claim against your auto insurance. For example, if you have an auto accident that costs $1000 to repair, and your auto insurance deductible is $500, you pay the $500 deductible and your car insurance company pays the remaining $500. One way to lower your costs is to select higher car insurance deductible amounts, which result in lower monthly auto insurance premiums.
