Does this mean that the main type of insurance that is taken out within the comprehensive package is physical damage and civil liability?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Thanks. I tend to think that "colocación" is more along the lines of "placement" here, but can't really come up with a better way of wording it.

Explanation:
I would agree with your understanding, and offer the above as an alternative wording.

Package policies include damage to own property and liability cover for bodily injury and property damage suffered by third parties as a general rule. How this is worded would depend on the TL country. If for UK English, civil liability would not work.
