Cheap Car Insurance for Young Drivers
Here are the seven best ways to save money on your car insurance if you're a young driver:
1. Comparison shop - Because car insurance can vary as much as $1,000 or more between companies, comparing car insurance rates is the best way to save money on your car insurance.
The easiest way to comparison shop is to go to an insurance comparison website. Once there you'll fill out a simple questionnaire in order to get rates from a number of companies. Then you can compare those rates and choose the cheapest one.
The best comparison sites have insurance experts on call so you can get answers to your car insurance questions through an online chat service or by telephone. (See link below.)
2. Raise your deductible - Raising your deductible from $250 to $500 can save you up to 30% on your yearly premium. Raising it to $1,000 can save you up to 50%.
3. Consolidate your insurance - You can save up to 15% by placing your policy with your parent's policy.
4. Take a driver's training course - Taking a driver's ed course can save you 10% to 15% on your insurance premium.
5. Keep your grades up - If you're in high school or college, getting good grades will get you a discount with most insurance companies.
6. Buy a conservative car - If you're in the process of buying a car, purchasing a conservative car like a Honda Accord, as opposed to a souped-up muscle car, can save you up to $1,000 or more a year on your insurance.
7. Safety and security features - Insurance companies will give you discounts for anti lock brakes, air bags, and automatic seat belts. They will also give discounts for having a burglar alarm or other anti-theft device installed in your car.
