But Missouri consumers do need to know the way companies sell online because it can help you find the best coverage.

Neelyville Rates are Influenced by These Factors

Consumers need to have an understanding of the different types of things that help determine the rates you pay for car insurance. Understanding what controls the rates you pay enables informed choices that could result in much lower annual insurance costs.

The following are a partial list of the pieces car insurance companies consider when setting premiums.

  • Liability coverage is peace of mind - Liability coverage is the protection if you are found liable for causing damage or personal injury in an accident. Liability provides legal defense which can be incredibly expensive. Carrying liability coverage is mandatory and cheap when compared with rates for comp and collision, so do not cut corners here.
  • Pay less if you're married - Having a wife or husband can get you a discount on your policy. Having a spouse means you're more mature than a single person and it's statistically proven that married drivers get in fewer accidents.
  • High deductibles save money - Deductibles for physical damage represent how much money you are required to spend before a claim is paid by your company. Physical damage insurance, commonly called comprehensive (or other-than-collision) and collision coverage, insures against damage to your car. Some instances where coverage would apply would be colliding with a building, damage caused by hail, or theft. The more you are required to pay out-of-pocket, the bigger discount you will receive.
  • Women pay lower rates - Statistics have proven that men are more aggressive behind the wheel. However, this does not mean men are worse drivers. Both sexes are in accidents in similar numbers, but the male of the species have costlier accidents. Men also tend to receive more costly citations like DUI and reckless driving. Teenage male drivers are several times more likely to be in an accident and are penalized with high car insurance rates.
  • Occupation reflects on rates - Did you know your occupation can influence how much you pay for car insurance? Occupations such as judges, business owners and accountants tend to have higher rates than average attributed to stressful work requirements and long work days. On the flip side, occupations such as pilots, athletes and performers receive lower rates.
  • Safer occupants lowers premiums - Vehicles with high crash test scores can get you lower premiums. Safe vehicles reduce injuries and any reduction in injury severity translates into savings for insurance companies and lower rates for you.

These discounts can lower your rates

Companies that sell car insurance don't necessarily list all available discounts in an easy-to-find place, so we researched both the well known and the more hidden savings tricks you should be using.

  • Multiple Vehicles - Buying coverage for multiple vehicles with the same company could earn a price break for each car.
  • Paperless Signup - A few companies may give you up to $50 for buying a policy and signing up on their website.
  • Student in College - Kids in college who are attending college and do not have access to a covered vehicle can be insured at a reduced rate.
  • No Accidents - Drivers who don't have accidents pay much less when compared with accident-prone drivers.
  • Organization Discounts - Being a member of certain professional organizations is a good way to get lower rates when buying car insurance.
  • Fewer Miles Equal More Savings - Fewer annual miles could be rewarded with discounted rates on garaged vehicles.
  • Student Driver Training - Cut your cost by having your teen driver enroll in driver's education if it's offered in school.
  • Payment Method - If you pay your entire premium ahead of time instead of making monthly payments you may reduce your total bill.
  • Government Employees - Employees or retirees of the government could cut as much as 10% off depending on your company.

Consumers should know that most discount credits are not given to all coverage premiums. A few only apply to the cost of specific coverages such as physical damage coverage or medical payments. So even though they make it sound like adding up those discounts means a free policy, companies don't profit that way.

Are you falling for claims of savings?

Allstate, GEICO and Progressive continually stream ads on television and other media. All the companies make an identical promise that you'll save big after switching to their company. How do they all claim to save you money?

Insurance companies have a preferred profile for the driver that makes them money. For instance, a profitable customer might be between the ages of 30 and 50, insures multiple vehicles, and has great credit. Any driver who meets those qualifications receives the best rates and as a result will probably cut their rates substantially.

Potential customers who are not a match for the "perfect" profile must pay a more expensive rate and ends up with the customer not buying. Company advertisements say "people who switch" not "everybody who quotes" save that much. This is how companies can advertise the savings. This illustrates why you should get quotes from several different companies. You cannot predict which insurance companies will fit your personal profile best.

Shop smart and save

Discount car insurance can be sourced both online and also from your neighborhood Neelyville agents, and you should compare price quotes from both to have the best rate selection. There are still a few companies who may not provide online price quotes and usually these small, regional companies provide coverage only through local independent agents.

When you buy insurance online, never buy poor coverage just to save money. In too many instances, drivers have reduced collision coverage and learned later that the few dollars in savings costed them thousands. Your focus should be to buy enough coverage at an affordable rate while not skimping on critical coverages.
