Good Decisions Result in Lower Rates

It's important that you understand some of the elements that play a part in calculating the rates you pay for car insurance. Knowing what influences your rates enables informed choices that could result in lower car insurance prices.

Liability insurance protects assets - Your policy's liability coverage will protect you if you are found liable for causing damage or personal injury in an accident. Liability insurance provides for a legal defense starting from day one. Carrying liability coverage is mandatory and cheap as compared to coverage for physical damage, so buy as much as you can afford.
Theft deterrents lower rates - Driving a car with an alarm system can get you a discount on your car insurance. Theft prevention devices such as tamper alarm systems, vehicle immobilizer technology and General Motors OnStar all hinder your car from being stolen.
Do you need the policy add-ons? - There are quite a few extra bells and whistles that you can get tricked into buying when buying car insurance. Coverages for personal injury protection, accidental death and term life insurance are examples of these. These coverages may sound good when you first buy your policy, but if they're wasting money eliminate them to save money.
Your spouse saves you money - Having a spouse helps lower the price when buying car insurance. Having a spouse means you're more mature and it's proven that drivers who are married are more cautious.
Older drivers save more - Youthful drivers in Montana have a tendency to get distracted easily in a vehicle so they pay higher car insurance rates. Mature drivers are more responsible, tend to file fewer claims and tend to be better behind the wheel.
Men are more aggressive - The statistics show that women are safer drivers than men. Now that doesn't mean men are worse drivers. Women and men cause accidents in similar percentages, but the male of the species tend to have more serious accidents. Men also tend to get cited for more serious violations like DUI and reckless driving.
Bad driving skills means higher rates - Whether or not you get tickets has a lot to do with how much you pay for insurance. Careful drivers have lower premiums than their less careful counterparts. Just one speeding ticket can boost insurance rates by twenty percent. Drivers with dangerous tickets like reckless driving, hit and run or driving under the influence are required to file a proof of financial responsibility form (SR-22) to the state department of motor vehicles in order to prevent a license revocation.

More discounts equal less premium

Insurance can cost an arm and a leg, but you can get discounts to help bring down the price. A few discounts will automatically apply when you get a quote, but lesser-known reductions have to be manually applied before you will receive the discount. If you're not getting every credit available, you're just leaving money on the table.

Club Memberships - Being a member of a qualifying organization could qualify you for a break when buying car insurance.
Drivers Education - Require your teen driver to enroll in driver's education if offered at their school.
Fewer Miles Equal More Savings - Low mileage vehicles can earn lower rates on the low mileage vehicles.
Paperless Signup - Certain companies may give you up to $50 just for signing your application over the internet.
Student in College - Children who attend school more than 100 miles from home and don't have a car may be able to be covered for less.

It's important to note that most credits do not apply to the entire cost. Most cut individual premiums such as physical damage coverage or medical payments. So despite the fact that it appears it's possible to get free car insurance, you're out of luck. But any discount will bring down your premiums.

In the end, you save

Lower-priced car insurance is attainable both online and also from your neighborhood Dutton agents, so compare prices from both to have the best chance of lowering rates. Some insurance providers may not provide online quoting and usually these regional insurance providers provide coverage only through local independent agents.

Consumers leave their current company for a number of reasons such as questionable increases in premium, extreme rates for teen drivers, delays in responding to claim requests and an unsatisfactory settlement offer. It doesn't matter why you want to switch choosing a new insurance company is not as hard as you think.

As you shop your coverage around, never reduce needed coverages to save money. In too many instances, an insured dropped uninsured motorist or liability limits only to regret that saving that couple of dollars actually costed them tens of thousands. Your focus should be to purchase plenty of coverage at a price you can afford while not skimping on critical coverages.
