Nine Ways To Lower Your Auto Insurance Costs

 

You may not realize it, but the insurance rates you pay

for your car can vary dramatically depending on the insurance

company, agent or broker you choose, the coverages you request

and the kind of car you drive. Listed below are a number of

things you can do right now to lower your insurance costs.

 

1. COMPARISON SHOP.

 

Prices for the same coverage can vary by hundreds of

dollars, so it pays to shop around. Ask your friends, check the

yellow pages or call your state insurance department (phone

numbers are on back page). You can also check consumer guides,

insurance agents or companies. This will give you an idea of

price ranges and tell you which companies or agents have the

lowest prices. But don't shop price alone.

 

The insurer you select should offer both fair prices and

excellent service. Quality personal service may cost a bit

more, but provides added conveniences, so talk to a number of

insurers to get a feeling for the quality of their service. Ask

them what they would do to lower your costs. Check the

financial ratings of the companies too. Then, when you've

narrowed the field to three insurers, get price quotes.

 

 

2. ASK FOR HIGHER DEDUCTIBLES.

 

Deductibles represent the amount of money you pay before

you make a claim. By requesting higher deductibles on collision

and comprehensive (fire and theft) coverage, you can lower your

costs substantially. For example, increasing your deductible

from $200 to $500 could reduce your collision cost by 15% to

30%.

 

3. DROP COLLISION AND/OR COMPREHENSIVE COVERAGES ON OLDER

CARS.

 

It may not be cost-effective to have collision or

comprehensive coverages on cars worth less than $1000 because

any claim you make would not substantially exceed annual cost

and deductible amounts. Auto dealers and banks can tell you the

worth of cars.

 

4. ELIMINATE DUPLICATE MEDICAL COVERAGES.

 

If you have adequate health insurance, you may be paying

for duplicate medical coverage in your auto policy. In some

states, eliminating this coverage could lower your personal

injury protection (PIP) cost by up to 40%.

 

5. BUY A "LOW PROFILE" CAR.

 

Before you buy a new or used car, check into insurance

costs. Cars that are expensive to repair, or that are favorite

targets for thieves, have much higher insurance costs. Write to

the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, 1005 North Glebe

Road, Arlington, VA 22201 and ask for the Highway Loss Data

Chart.

 

6. CONSIDER AREA INSURANCE COST IF YOU ARE MAKING A MOVE.

 

Costs tend to be lowest in rural communities and highest

in center cities where there is more traffic congestion.

 

 

7. TAKE ADVANTAGE Of LOW MILEAGE DISCOUNTS.

 

Some companies offer discounts to motorists who drive

fewer than a predetermined number of miles a year.

 

8. FIND OUT ABOUT AUTOMATIC SEAT BELT OR AIR BAG DISCOUNTS.

 

You may be able to take advantage of discounts on some

coverages if you have automatic seat belts and/or air bags.

 

9. INQUIRE ABOUT OTHER DISCOUNTS.

 

Some insurers offer discounts for more than one car, no

accidents in three years, drivers over 50 years of age, driver

training courses, anti-theft devices, anti-lock brakes and good

grades for students. See the following page for a guide to

these and other discounts.
