What is the difference between collision and comprehensive coverage?

Collision coverage pays for damage to your vehicle as a result of its impact with an object or its upset. Comprehensive coverage applies to damage of your vehicle caused by vandalism, theft, glass breakage, missiles or falling objects, fire, explosion or earthquake, windstorm, hail, water or flood, riot or civil commotion or contact with bird or animal. Comprehensive coverage varies by state, please check your policy and with your agent.
