Auto Insurance
Ultimate Guide to Cheap Car Insurance
If you own a car, truck, or other vehicle you are required by law to carry some type
of insurance coverage. At a minimum, you are required to carry liability coverage that
will cover expenses related to personal injury or property damage. In other words, if
you cause an accident and someone is injured or property is damaged, you are
responsible for paying for damages.
An insurance policy guarantees payment of a certain amount to cover these
expenses should an accident occur. The rates you pay for your car insurance policy
are based upon many factors including: age, sex, driving history, credit history, and
year, make and model of the vehicle being insured. Other cost factors are determined
by the amount of coverage you want.
Comprehensive is the most expensive type of insurance coverage. This type of
insurance can offer protection to you, your family, and your car. It covers other things
that can happen to your car such as fire, vandalism, or acts of Mother Nature such as
hail damage.
16
Auto Insurance
Liability is the cheapest car insurance; however, if you do not own your car
outright, you cannot purchase liability insurance alone. Lenders require you to have
comprehensive insurance covering the vehicle until the note is paid in full.
Liability insurance offers protection to people in other cars when you are at fault
for an accident. Typically, liability insurance will cover medical expenses and car
repairs, up to a certain dollar amount. In most cases, liability insurance covers you
in any vehicle that you drive, whether it belongs to you or someone else.
The following tips can help you obtain the cheapest car insurance rates, while
making certain you adhere to your state’s minimum insurance requirements.
1. Shop around. Conduct research via the Internet or by phone. Nearly every car
insurance agent will provide you with a free quote. It’s a good idea to shop around
for competitive rates on your current vehicle.
17
Auto Insurance
2. Keep a clean record. Both your driving history and credit history are determining
factors in the amount of your insurance premium. If you want to have cheap car
insurance rates, keep your foot off the gas, obey traffic laws, and pay your bills in a
timely fashion.
3. Bundle your insurance. Many car insurance companies offer other types of
insurance such as homeowner’s and life. If you buy all your insurance coverage
from them, chances are you will receive a significant discount on your premiums.
4. Buy online. You can save up to 10 percent or more by purchasing car insurance
online. Many insurance companies offer a discount to individuals who set-up
automatic payments. This can be done by entering a credit card number or bank
account.
5. Buy a more economical car. Insurance rates are partially based on the type of car
you drive. If the vehicle has low safety ratings, high theft rates, or high incidence of
vandalism, you will pay a higher premium. It’s a good idea to research car ratings
prior to purchasing one. Look for cars with high safety ratings and low maintenance
