Comprehensive (also known as Other Than Collision) and Collision covers your own property not the other person.
Comprehensive and collision are physical damage coverages that cover your own vehicle while liability coverages of property damage and bodily injury liability cover those that you may cause damages to.
Comprehensive covers your vehicle, and sometimes other vehicles you may be driving for losses resulting from incidents other than collision. For example, comprehensive insurance covers damage to your car if it is stolen; or damaged by flood, fire, or animals.
Collision covers damage to your car when your car hits, or is hit by, another vehicle, or other object. Both physical damage coverages of collision and comprehensive pay to fix your vehicle less the deductible you chose at the inception of your policy.
Property Damage liability covers you if your car damages someone else's property. Usually it is their car, but it could be a fence, a house or any other property damaged in an accident. It also provides you with legal defense if another party files a lawsuit against you.
