Choosing Your Best Car Insurance Rate

People like to shop around. It´s our human nature. The case is also the same with car insurance. The best and cheapest car insurance is every car owner´s dream. The problem is, how to cherry pick car insurance. There are so many choices out there. Hopefully after reading this guide you will understand the general idea of choosing the best car insurance for you.

What you need to realize is that the car insurance industry is just another insurance industry. The higher the risk of the vehicle according to the car insurance company, the higher the amount you should pay. It´s quite simple though. It doesn´t need a rocket science to know about it. So, without wasting any of your precious time, below are some criteria that you should pay attention to before shopping around.

Cars with high stolen rate

Whether you realize it or not, most of car insurance companies maintain a list of “troubled” cars. Maybe the security of the car is not enough. Maybe it´s just a coincidence that a specific type of car is mostly stolen. Whatever the case, if you have this type of car, you may pay more money.

Cars with lots of safety devices

Safety devices of a car also play a major role on determining the car insurance rate. Don´t forget that the quality of the safety devices also plays a role in determining the car insurance rate.

Driving record

If you think car insurance company determines the car insurance rate only from the car, you are wrong. Your driving record plays a major role in determining whether you will get cheap car insurance rate or not. If you have bad driving record, for example enjoying driving with a high speed, the car insurance rate will be higher.

Multi-car discount

Like any other legitimate company, if you buy several products from one car insurance company, you may get a discount. If you really like your current car insurance company and you have more than one car, just register them all in one car insurance company. That way, you may get a discount. Hopefully a deep one!

Retirement discount, driver´s training discount, & good student discount

Most car insurance companies give discounts here and there. Discount for senior adult or training driver is available. Some car insurance also gives discount for student with good grades. Mostly, a GPA with 3.0 is enough to get this kind of discount.

Bottom line…

The smaller the risk the car insurance company has to cover, the smaller your car insurance rate will be. If you can convince the car insurance company that everything are safe by bringing proofs, more often than not, you will get a low cost car insurance.
