Searching For Low Rate Vehicle Insurance?

By Chimezirim Odimba

There are simple things that will go a long way in helping you get the right coverage at lower rates. Do you know those things? Let's look at a few here...

One good way to make sure you get lower rates is by being careful every time you're behind wheels. Please, ensure that you make it a personal principle to NOT drive if you so much as sip any alcoholic beverage.

Driving while drunk, even if slightly will make you pay sky-high rates if you're fortunate or be made to stay without car insurance if luck isn't on your side. And don't forget those speeding tickets because they cost you far more than what you pay as fines. They eventually raise your rate. You'll be helping yourself by obeying all traffic laws at all times.

Under-25 drivers attract very high rates. If you fall into this age group you can attract more affordable rates if you keep getting good grades at school.

You have to have a grade point not lower than B to have a good student discount. It attracts a discount of about 5 percent. Experience has proven to insurers that what makes a student maintain excellent grades is a level of responsibility which is also carried while driving. Young drivers with good grades are usually seen as more responsible and less likely to take to reckless driving.

Belonging to an auto club could get you a discount with several insurance carriers. Even if this discount is very small it's still something.

There are vehicles that cost a lot more to give adequate auto insurance coverage. So as you check out the wonderful specs of the vehicle you want to buy, don't forget to ask if it costs too much to insure. A comparable car that has a bad crash rating and higher theft rate will be more expensive to insure.

Another thing to take into consideration is a car's maintainance cost as this is as well an issue that determines your premium. This is my personal opinion; but it does make sense to buy a comparable car that is more insurance-friendly.

Become part of a car pool if you can and you'll be eligible for a discount. This is because carpooling reduces mileage (which is an essential factor that shapes your rate). You'll save in direct ratio to how much carpooling cuts down your total mileage.

Make sure your auto insurance policy is never allowed to lapse no matter what.. It will make you pay high premiums for a considerable length of time. Don't make this mistake if you're switching since that's one situation where this happens to many folks.

One way to be certain you do NOT make this type of mistake is to maintain your old policy until you've confirmed that the new policy is in full force. Many people are paying higher rates than they should simply because of this mistake. Therefore, make sure you don't become one of them.

And don't miss this...

The most important step to considerable savings in auto insurance is comparison shopping -- Given that you do it correctly. You can get quotes that will have a range that exceeds $1,000. You could easily save so much by just picking the lowest quote. That should apply if you're simply after the lowest price.

Nevertheless, if you want the best value to price ratio then you'd have to check the details of the lowest quotes. Different insurance companies may have slight differences for similar policies. It's important that you ask the agent what's included and what's excluded. - 21396
