Five tips to get cheap insurance costs

When buying insurance it’s important to understand some of the things that play a part in calculating insurance rates. If you have a feel for what positively or negatively impacts your premiums, this enables informed choices that may result in lower premium levels. Many things are taken into consideration when premium rates are determined. Some factors are common sense such as your driving record, but others are more obscure such as whether you are married and annual miles driven.

• Your location is important – Residing in less populated areas of the country has definite advantages when shopping for auto insurance. People who live in big cities tend to have traffic congestion and longer commute times. Fewer drivers on the road translates into fewer accidents in addition to fewer liability claims.
• Accidents will cost you – How you drive can have a huge impact on auto insurance premiums. Having a single speeding ticket can increase rates by as much as twenty percent. Attentive drivers get better prices compared to bad drivers. Drivers who have flagrant tickets such as DUI or willful reckless driving may face state-mandated requirements to file a SR-22 to the state department of motor vehicles in order to drive a vehicle legally.
• Men tend to take more risk – Over the last 50 years, statistics have shown that women are safer drivers than men. However, don’t assume that men are WORSE drivers than women. Females and males cause at-fault accidents at about the same rate, but the male of the species tend to have more serious accidents. Men also tend to receive more major tickets like driving under the influence (DUI). Young males have the highest risk to insure and therefore pay the highest rates.
• Liability protection limits are a factor – The liability section of your policy kicks in when you are found to be at fault for causing personal injury or damage in an accident. Liability provides for a legal defense starting from day one. It is affordable coverage as compared to coverage for physical damage, so do not cut corners here.
• Younger driver insurance costs – Teenage drivers are statistically proven to be easily distracted with other occupants in the car so they pay higher insurance rates. If you’ve ever had to add a teen driver to your policy can be quite pricey. Older, more experienced drivers are more cautious drivers, cost insurance companies less in claims and receive fewer citations.

Free insurance coverage rate quotes

To find cheap car insurance quotes, there are several ways to obtain and compare prices from companies that offer insurance coverage in your state. The best way to compare Infiniti FX45 insurance prices is simply to get online rate quotes. This is quite simple and can be completed in several different ways.

• The most recommended method to compare a lot of rates at once is to use a rate comparison form click to view form in new window. This style of form keeps you from doing boring form submissions for every prospective company. A single, simple form gets prices estimates direct from many companies. It’s definitely the quickest method.
• A different way to find better pricing is going to the website for every company you want to comare and fill out a new quote form. For examples sake, we’ll pretend you need rates from Liberty Mutual, Progressive and Geico. To get each rate you have to spend time going to each site individually to enter your coverage information, which is why the first method is more popular. For a list of links to insurance companies in your area, click here.
• The most time-consuming way to compare price quotes is to spend time driving to local insurance agencies. Doing it all online has reduced the need for local agents unless you have a complicated situation and need the professional assistance of a local agency. You can, however, obtain prices from the web but buy the policy through an agent.

How you compare quotes is your choice, just double check that you are using the same quote data for every quote you compare. If you compare different values for each quote it will be very difficult to decipher which rate is best. Just slight variations in coverages can make a big difference in price. Just keep in mind that comparing a wide range of rates increases your odds of finding lower pricing. Some companies don’t provide online quotes, so it’s recommended that you also compare quotes on coverage from those companies, too.

Verify you’re getting every discount

Companies that sell car insurance don’t always publicize every discount very clearly, so the next list breaks down both well-publicized as well as the least known credits available to lower your premiums when you buy car insurance online. If you aren’t receiving every discount you qualify for, you could be getting lower rates.

• Air Bags and Passive Restraints – Vehicles equipped with air bags can receive discounts of 25 to 30%.
• No Accidents – Drivers who stay claim-free pay much less when compared to insureds who have frequent claims or accidents.
• Safety Course Discount – Taking a class that teaches safe driver techniques is a good idea and can lower rates and easily pay for the cost of the class.
• Discounts for New Vehicles – Buying a new car model can be considerably cheaper due to better safety requirements for new model year vehicles.
• Driver Education Discount – Have your child complete a driver education course if it’s offered in school.
• Data Collection Discounts – Drivers who agree to allow their insurance company to spy on driving patterns through the use of a telematics system like Allstate’s Drivewise could possibly reduce rates if they exhibit good driving behavior.
• Discounts for Seat Belt Usage – Requiring all passengers to fasten their seat belts can save 10% or more on medical payment and PIP coverage.

As a sidenote, most discounts do not apply to all coverage premiums. Most only apply to specific coverage prices like collision or personal injury protection. Even though it may seem like adding up those discounts means a free policy, it’s just not the way it works.

Companies and the discounts they provide are outlined below.

• Geico policyholders can earn discounts including defensive driver, emergency military deployment, anti-lock brakes, federal employee, and military active duty.
• Auto-Owners Insurance offers discounts for student away at school, mature driver, multi-policy, paid in full, and anti-lock brakes.
• American Family offers premium reductions for Steer into Savings, mySafetyValet, accident-free, good student, defensive driver, early bird, and multi-vehicle.
• Esurance may offer discounts for safety device, claim free, good student, anti-lock brakes, DriveSense, and online quote.
• Progressive has discounts for homeowner, multi-vehicle, multi-policy, continuous coverage, online quote discount, and good student.
• State Farm may have discounts that include multiple autos, student away at school, anti-theft, good student, and defensive driving training.
• AAA discounts include pay-in-full, good driver, multi-car, anti-theft, multi-policy, good student, and education and occupation.

Before you buy a policy, ask every insurance company which discounts can lower your rates. Some discounts may not be offered in every state. If you would like to view providers who offer discounts, click this link.

Specifics of your auto insurance policy

Having a good grasp of your policy helps when choosing the best coverages and the correct deductibles and limits. The coverage terms in a policy can be difficult to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring.

Medical expense insurance – Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage kick in for expenses for things like funeral costs, pain medications, prosthetic devices and doctor visits. They are often used in conjunction with a health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. It covers you and your occupants and will also cover getting struck while a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not an option in every state and may carry a deductible

Collision coverage – This coverage will pay to fix damage to your FX45 resulting from colliding with an object or car. You will need to pay your deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision coverage protects against claims such as hitting a parking meter, rolling your car, damaging your car on a curb, colliding with a tree and scraping a guard rail. Paying for collision coverage can be pricey, so consider dropping it from older vehicles. You can also increase the deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.

Liability – This coverage will cover damage or injury you incur to people or other property that is your fault. This coverage protects you against claims from other people. Liability doesn’t cover your injuries or vehicle damage.

Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. Your policy might show liability limits of 25/50/25 that translate to $25,000 bodily injury coverage, a limit of $50,000 in injury protection per accident, and $25,000 of coverage for damaged propery. Another option is one limit called combined single limit (CSL) which combines the three limits into one amount without having the split limit caps.

Liability coverage protects against claims such as funeral expenses, structural damage and loss of income. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is a decision to put some thought into, but consider buying as large an amount as possible.

Comprehensive (Other than Collision) – This coverage will pay to fix damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You first have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive coverage pays for claims such as rock chips in glass, theft and hail damage. The most you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the market value of your vehicle, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers – This coverage protects you and your vehicle’s occupants when the “other guys” either have no liability insurance or not enough. It can pay for injuries to you and your family and also any damage incurred to your Infiniti FX45.

Because many people carry very low liability coverage limits, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is important protection for you and your family. Most of the time these limits are similar to your liability insurance amounts.

Smart shoppers get results

When trying to cut insurance costs, it’s very important that you do not buy lower coverage limits just to save a few bucks. Too many times, an insured cut liability limits or collision coverage only to regret at claim time that the few dollars in savings costed them thousands. Your aim should be to buy a smart amount of coverage at an affordable rate but still have enough coverage for asset protection.

Insureds who switch companies do it for any number of reasons including an unsatisfactory settlement offer, high rates after DUI convictions, delays in paying claims and extreme rates for teen drivers. Whatever your reason, switching companies is less work than it seems.

Lower-priced car insurance can be bought online in addition to many insurance agents, and you should be comparing both to have the best chance of lowering rates. Some insurance providers do not offer the ability to get a quote online and many times these smaller companies sell through local independent agencies.
