Reduce insurance rates with these tips
Lots of factors are part of the calculation when pricing auto insurance. A few of the factors are predictable like a motor vehicle report, but other criteria are less apparent like your vehicle usage or how safe your car is.
- Pay less with a high NHTSA crash test rating – Cars with high safety ratings cost less to insure. The safest vehicles result in less severe injuries and lower rates of occupant injuries means less money paid by your insurance company which can mean better rates for you. If your Buick Lucerne scored at minimum four stars on Safercar.gov or an “acceptable” rating on iihs.org you are probably receiving a discount.
- Never let your car insurance policy expire – Driving without insurance coverage in place is illegal and you will pay a penalty because you let your coverage cancel without a new policy in place. Not only will you pay higher rates, getting caught without coverage might get you a revoked license or a big fine. You may then be required to submit proof of financial responsibility or a SR-22 with your state motor vehicle department.
- Gender matters – The statistics show that females tend to be a little less risky than males. However, this does not mean females are better drivers. They both cause at-fault accidents in similar numbers, but the men cause more damage. Men also get cited for more serious violations such as DWI and reckless driving.
- Your location is important – Living in a rural area can save you money when buying car insurance. Less people translates into fewer accident claims and a lower car theft rate. Residents of big cities tend to have more aggressive driving styles and much longer commute distances. More time on the road means more chances of being involved in an auto accident.
- Do you know your comp and collision deductibles? – Comprehensive and collision coverage deductibles tell how much you are required to spend out-of-pocket if the claim is covered. Insurance for physical damage, termed comprehensive and collision coverage on your policy, covers damage that occurs to your car. Examples of some claims that would be covered are rearending another vehicle, vandalism, and having a roll-over accident. The larger the amount you choose to pay out-of-pocket, the less your car insurance will be for Lucerne insurance.
- Drivers with excellent credit save on car insurance – Your credit rating is likely to be a major factor in calculating your premium rate. So if your credit score could use some work, you may save money insuring your 2007 Buick Lucerne by taking the time to improve your credit score. People that have excellent credit scores tend to file fewer claims than drivers who have poor credit scores.
- Your occupation and car insurance rates – Occupational choices like fire fighters, business owners and dentists tend to have higher premiums than the average policyholder because of stressful work requirements and lots of time spent at work. On the other hand, occupations like actors, historians and retirees pay the least for Lucerne insurance.
- Avoid tickets and save – Only having one speeding ticket can bump up the cost by as much as thirty percent. Drivers with clean records pay less for auto insurance compared to bad drivers. Drivers unfortunate enough to have dangerous violations such as DUI or reckless driving may be required to complete a SR-22 with their state’s licensing department in order to prevent a license revocation.
Earn discounts to get lower-cost auto insurance quotes
Companies that sell car insurance don’t always list every possible discount in a way that’s easy to find, so the list below contains a few of the more well known and also the lesser-known ways to save on auto insurance.
- Auto/Home Discount – If you can bundle your home and auto insurance with the same company you could get a discount of at least 10% off all policies.
- Theft Prevention System – Vehicles that have factory alarm systems and tracking devices are stolen with less frequency and will qualify for a discount on a car insurance quote.
- Claim-Free Discount – Good drivers with no accidents pay much less when compared with drivers with a long claim history.
- Mature Driver Discount – Seniors may receive a discount up to 10% for Lucerne insurance.
- Military Deployment Discount – Being deployed with a military unit may qualify for rate reductions.
- Safety Course Discount – Successfully completing a class that teaches safe driver techniques could cut 5% off your bill and easily pay for the cost of the class.
As is typical with insurance, most discounts do not apply to your bottom line cost. The majority will only reduce the price of certain insurance coverages like medical payments or collision. Despite the fact that it seems like adding up those discounts means a free policy, you’re out of luck.
Some companies that may offer these discounts are:
Double check with each company which discounts they offer. Some credits may not apply in your area.
Tailor your insurance coverage to you
When it comes to buying the right insurance coverage, there isn’t really a “perfect” insurance plan. Everyone’s situation is a little different.
Here are some questions about coverages that might help in determining whether your personal situation will benefit from professional help.
- When should I buy a commercial auto policy?
- How much liability do I need to cover my assets?
- Do I need replacement cost coverage on my 2007 Buick Lucerne?
- I have good health insurance, so how much medical payments coverage do I need?
- Which companies will insure high-risk drivers?
- Am I covered when using my vehicle for business?
- Can I rate high risk drivers on liability-only vehicles?
If you can’t answer these questions but a few of them apply then you might want to talk to an agent. To find lower rates from a local agent, take a second and complete this form.

Auto insurance coverage information
Understanding the coverages of a auto insurance policy aids in choosing the best coverages for your vehicles. The terms used in a policy can be difficult to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy.
Auto liability – This can cover injuries or damage you cause to a person or their property. This coverage protects you against other people’s claims. It does not cover your injuries or vehicle damage.
Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. You might see liability limits of 100/300/100 that means you have a $100,000 limit per person for injuries, a total of $300,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and $100,000 of coverage for damaged propery. Some companies may use a combined single limit or CSL that pays claims from the same limit and claims can be made without the split limit restrictions.
Liability coverage pays for claims such as court costs, legal defense fees, emergency aid and pain and suffering. How much coverage you buy is up to you, but you should buy as high a limit as you can afford.
Collision – This covers damage to your Lucerne from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. You first must pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.
Collision can pay for claims such as sideswiping another vehicle, rolling your car, hitting a mailbox and colliding with another moving vehicle. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so consider removing coverage from older vehicles. You can also bump up the deductible to bring the cost down.
UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage – Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage gives you protection when other motorists either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. Covered claims include hospital bills for your injuries as well as damage to your 2007 Buick Lucerne.
Since a lot of drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, their limits can quickly be used up. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea. Usually these limits do not exceed the liability coverage limits.
Medical payments and PIP coverage – Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP provide coverage for short-term medical expenses such as dental work, pain medications, EMT expenses, surgery and chiropractic care. They are often used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if there is no health insurance coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover you and your occupants in addition to if you are hit as a while walking down the street. Personal injury protection coverage is not universally available but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage
Comprehensive auto coverage – This coverage will pay to fix damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. A deductible will apply and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.
Comprehensive coverage pays for claims like hitting a bird, fire damage, theft and damage from a tornado or hurricane. The maximum amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider dropping full coverage.
Shop. Compare. Save.
Discount 2007 Buick Lucerne insurance is definitely available on the web and also from your neighborhood agents, and you need to comparison shop both to have the best selection. There are still a few companies who may not provide price quotes online and usually these small insurance companies provide coverage only through local independent agents.
As you shop your coverage around, you should never reduce coverage to reduce premium. In many cases, consumers will sacrifice liability limits or collision coverage only to regret that it was a big mistake. Your aim should be to get the best coverage possible at the best possible price.
We just covered a lot of ways to lower your 2007 Buick Lucerne insurance rates. The key thing to remember is the more times you quote, the better chance you’ll have of finding the cheapest car insurance. You may even find the best price on car insurance is with the smaller companies.
