Having a teenager included on your auto insurance policy will always cost substantially more,
but there are ways to reduce the premium increase. |
|
The best cars for teen drivers are slower, bigger cars with a lot of safety features. Teenager's
are more prone to accidents, especially ones caused by speeding. A disproportionate number of teenage car accidents involve only one vehicle. |
|
Make sure your teen drives safely. One speeding ticket or fender-bender can send your
teenager's auto insurance rates sky high. Require that they take a drivers education class at their high school or local DMV. |
|
Good student teen driver insurance rates can save up to 25% on your teenager's auto
insurance if a "B" average is maintained. |
|
Assuming your teen keeps a good driving record, the cost of insuring them will decrease as
they get older. |
|
Auto Insurance endorsements are policy extras for services such as towing insurance,
auto glass insurance, daily rental insurance, and emergency roadside insurance. |
|
These auto insurance policies are not required by any state, but many drivers choose
these services for the added security and convenience they provide. |
|

often combined with auto towing coverage and called Roadside Emergency Towing Insurance. Changing a flat tire on the roadside may also be covered, but you will need to pay for repairs received at the garage or other repair location. |

Georgia Auto Insurance Coverages
|
|
If you have an older car, you can lower your Georgia auto insurance premium by
reducing or dropping your collision or comprehensive coverages. Cars being sold today are much more costly to repair, just ask your auto mechanic the next time you see him. If you damage your older car in a car accident, it's likely that your repair costs will be lower than those for a newer car with similar damage. The amount of Georgia auto insurance premium that goes toward that coverage option is only slightly reduced for older cars than for newer ones. You can usually save some premium by taking on a small amount of risk. |
|
Lower Auto Insurance Premium - Increase Your Deductibles
|
|
Auto insurance premiums are based on the amount of coverage you have, and
the deductible you must pay before an insurance claim is paid. Auto insurance deductibles usually range between $100 and $1,000. A lower deductible raises the premium amount, and a higher deductible will lower your monthly Georgia auto insurance premium.
You should consider setting your deductible at an amount that you are
comfortable with. Determine the amount that you could afford to spend on your car in any given month if you had an accident. The amount that won't prevent you from paying all your bills is a good amount for an auto insurance deductible.
Remember though, if you have an car accident, the deductible you've chosen
must be paid before the insurance company will pay for your repairs, and there can be hidden costs in a car accident. For example, your Georgia auto insurance policy may not pay the cost of a rental car while your car is being repaired. |
|
Low-Mileage Discounts
|
|
The more miles you drive, the greater the chances of being involved in an
accident. Most auto insurance companies offer discounts to drivers who keep the number of miles they drive each year under 10,000 to 12,000 miles. |
|
Moving Violations
|
|
Most automobile insurance companies provide discounts to drivers who have
not had a moving violation in the past 3 years. Insurance companies consider speeding tickets and accidents the most serious moving violations which have an impact on your Georgia auto insurance premiums.
Review your driving record prior to shopping for Georgia auto insurance. You
may want to consider holding off on buying new auto insurance if you have a moving violation which can be removed from your records within a short period of time. |
|
Reduce Auto Insurance Premium - Fewer Accidents
|
|
Auto insurance companies want to insure the best drivers. Safer drivers have
fewer accidents, fewer speeding tickets, and make fewer claims. Every time you are involved in an auto accident or a moving violation, the state where you are licensed assesses points to your driving record. Auto insurance companies limit their risk exposure by charging higher premiums to drivers who have more points on their driving records. Convictions of driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol is often viewed as much more serious than a speeding ticket or a car accident by insurance carriers.
If you think that you apply for good driver rates, be sure to ask companies
when you are shopping for auto insurance what their "good driver" discounts are. Compare that price to the good driver rates of other companies, to help determine what the best Georgia auto insurance policy is for you and your family. |
|
Reduce Auto Insurance Premium - Anti-Lock Brakes
|
|
Anti-lock braking systems help prevent car accidents by shortening stopping
distances on wet and dry surfaces. Most car brakes without anti-locking mechanisms will lock if the driver slams the brake pedal, which can cause hydroplaning in wet conditions or skidding on dry surfaces. The proper way to avoid this is to pump the brakes. People are limited in the speed with which they can pump a brake pedal, so anti-lock brakes do the pumping for you and improve safety.
Auto insurance companies want to reduce the chance that their policy holders
will have a car accident. The auto insurance discounts offered are another incentive to buy cars equipped with anti-locking brakes. |
|
Multiple Insurance Policy Discount
|
|
Many auto insurance companies will offer lower premiums if you have multiple
insurance policies with the same company, or multiple vehicles insured under the same policy. This works differently depending on which specific insurance company you are dealing with.
Insurance companies will offer discounts if you purchase a homeowners
insurance policy or an umbrella insurance policy to go along with your Georgia auto insurance policy. |
