How to Compare Car Insurance Costs

Finding a better price on car insurance is surprisingly easy. The only requirement is to invest a few minutes comparing rates from different insurance companies. It is quite easy and can be accomplished using a couple different methods.

  • The recommended way to find the lowest comparison rates is an all-inclusive rate comparison (click to open form in new window). This easy form eliminates the need for separate forms for each company you want a rate for. One simple form will get you price quotes from many national carriers. This is by far the quickest method.
  • A harder way to get quotes online requires you to visit each company website to complete a price quote. For sake of this example, we’ll pretend you want to compare rates from Allstate, Progressive and American Family. To get each rate you have to spend time on each company’s site to enter your coverage information, and that’s why the first method is more popular.

It doesn’t matter which method you choose, just make darn sure you compare the exact same coverages and limits on every quote you get. If you have unequal deductibles or liability limits then you won’t be able to make an equal comparison.

How much can you save with discounts?

Car insurance is not cheap, but companies offer discounts to help offset the cost. Certain discounts will be triggered automatically at the time of quoting, but some may not be applied and must be manually applied before you will receive the discount. If you don’t get every credit you qualify for, you are paying more than you should be.

  • Federal Employees – Being employed by or retired from a federal job may qualify you for a discount for Typhoon coverage with select insurance companies.
  • Drivers Ed for Students – Make teen driver coverage more affordable by requiring them to complete a driver education course if offered at their school.
  • Service Members Pay Less – Being deployed with a military unit could be rewarded with lower premiums.
  • Discount for Good Grades – A discount for being a good student can save 20 to 25%. The discount lasts up to age 25.
  • Passive Restraints and Air Bags – Vehicles with factory air bags or automatic seat belts can get savings of more than 20%.
  • Theft Prevention Discount – Vehicles equipped with anti-theft or alarm systems prevent vehicle theft and will save you 10% or more.

Consumers should know that most of the big mark downs will not be given to your bottom line cost. Some only apply to the cost of specific coverages such as comp or med pay. So when it seems like it’s possible to get free car insurance, companies wouldn’t make money that way. But any discount will bring down the amount you have to pay.

Companies that possibly offer these discounts are:

Check with each insurance company what discounts are available to you. Discounts might not apply in your state.

How much car insurance do I need?

When it comes to choosing proper insurance coverage for your personal vehicles, there really is not a cookie cutter policy. Coverage needs to be tailored to your specific needs.

For example, these questions can aid in determining if you would benefit from professional advice.

  • Can I rent a car in Mexico?
  • What exactly is covered by my policy?
  • Can I rate high risk drivers on liability-only vehicles?
  • Is my dog or cat covered if injured in an accident?
  • Do I need higher collision deductibles?
  • Which companies will insure high-risk drivers?
  • Do I need replacement cost coverage on my 1993 GMC Typhoon?

If it’s difficult to answer those questions but a few of them apply then you might want to talk to a licensed agent. If you want to speak to an agent in your area, complete this form. It’s fast, doesn’t cost anything and can provide invaluable advice.

Car insurance policy specifics

Having a good grasp of a car insurance policy can be of help when determining which coverages you need and the correct deductibles and limits. Policy terminology can be impossible to understand and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording.

Auto collision coverage

Collision coverage will pay to fix damage to your Typhoon caused by collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You have to pay a deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision can pay for claims such as backing into a parked car, driving through your garage door, colliding with another moving vehicle, colliding with a tree and damaging your car on a curb. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are older. It’s also possible to raise the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Medical expense insurance

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance provide coverage for short-term medical expenses such as prosthetic devices, chiropractic care, X-ray expenses, rehabilitation expenses and hospital visits. They can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance plan or if you lack health insurance entirely. It covers you and your occupants in addition to any family member struck as a pedestrian. PIP is not available in all states and may carry a deductible

Comprehensive (Other than Collision)

This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first must pay your deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive can pay for things like rock chips in glass, falling objects and damage from a tornado or hurricane. The maximum payout you’ll receive from a claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Liability auto insurance

Liability coverage can cover damages or injuries you inflict on people or other property that is your fault. It protects YOU from legal claims by others, and doesn’t cover your injuries or vehicle damage.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. You might see policy limits of 25/50/25 that translate to $25,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $50,000, and a limit of $25,000 paid for damaged property. Some companies may use a combined limit which limits claims to one amount without having the split limit caps.

Liability coverage pays for things such as repair bills for other people’s vehicles, funeral expenses, attorney fees, structural damage and repair costs for stationary objects. How much liability coverage do you need? That is your choice, but buy as high a limit as you can afford.

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage provides protection when other motorists either are underinsured or have no liability coverage at all. It can pay for medical payments for you and your occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.

Since a lot of drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. So UM/UIM coverage should not be overlooked. Usually these limits are identical to your policy’s liability coverage.

A little work can save a LOT of money

People leave their current company for a variety of reasons including policy cancellation, not issuing a premium refund, poor customer service and an unsatisfactory settlement offer. Whatever your reason, finding the right insurance provider is actually quite simple.

Cheaper 1993 GMC Typhoon insurance is attainable on the web in addition to many insurance agents, and you should be comparing both to have the best rate selection. A few companies do not provide online price quotes and many times these small insurance companies only sell through independent insurance agents.

When buying insurance coverage, don’t be tempted to buy lower coverage limits just to save a few bucks. There have been many situations where drivers have reduced comprehensive coverage or liability limits and discovered at claim time that saving that couple of dollars actually costed them tens of thousands. The ultimate goal is to buy enough coverage at a price you can afford while still protecting your assets.
