If you have a policy now or are looking for a new policy, you can use this information to cut your premiums while maintaining coverages. The purpose of this post is to help you learn how to get online quotes and some tips to save money. Consumers just need to know the tricks to get comparison rates on the web.

How to find cheap car insurance

There are a lot of ways to compare car insurance prices but there is one way that is more efficient than others. You can waste a few hours (or days) talking about coverages with local insurance agents in your area, or you could save time and use online quotes for quick rates.

Most car insurance companies participate in a marketplace that enables customers to enter their policy data once, and at least one company then returns a price quote based on that data. This saves time by eliminating repetitive form submissions to every company. To participate in this free quote system, enter your zip code here.

The only downside to getting quotes like this is you can’t choose which providers you will receive quotes from. So if you prefer to choose specific providers to compare rates, we have a page of the cheapest car insurance companies in your area. Click to enter zip code.

Which method you use is up to you, but do your best to use exactly the same coverage limits with each company. If you enter different values for each quote you can’t possibly make an equal comparison.

Get lower-cost auto insurance rates with discounts

Not too many consumers would say auto insurance is affordable, but you may qualify for discounts that you may not even know about. A few discounts will be applied when you purchase, but some discounts are required to be asked for before being credited.

• Student Driver Training – Have your child take driver’s ed class if it’s offered in school.
• Sign Online – Some companies provide a small discount just for signing your application digitally online.
• Professional Organizations – Having an affiliation with certain professional organizations is a good way to get lower rates when getting a auto insurance quote.
• Life Insurance Discount – If the company offers life insurance, you could get better premium rates if you take out a life policy as well.
• Passenger Safety Discount – Cars that have air bags or motorized seat belts can get savings of 25 to 30%.
• Theft Prevention System – Cars with anti-theft systems help deter theft and will qualify for a discount on a auto insurance quote.

A quick disclaimer, most credits do not apply to the whole policy. Some only apply to the cost of specific coverages such as comprehensive or collision. Even though it may seem like all the discounts add up to a free policy, it doesn’t quite work that way. Any amount of discount should definitely cut your premiums.

Good decisions result in lower insurance prices

Lots of factors are part of the equation when you quote your car insurance policy. Some are pretty understandable like a motor vehicle report, although some other factors are more transparent like your vehicle usage or your commute time.

The list below includes a partial list of the pieces used by your company to calculate your prices.

• Traffic violations increase costs – Having just one moving violation may cause rates to rise to the point where it’s not affordable. Attentive drivers pay less for auto insurance as compared to careless drivers. People who have multiple violations such as DWI, reckless driving or hit and run convictions might be required by their state to file a SR-22 with the DMV in their state in order to keep their license.
• Are men or women drivers cheaper? – Over time, data shows women tend to be less risk to insure than men. The data does not necessarily mean that women are BETTER drivers than men. They both cause auto accidents at about the same rate, but the male of the species have costlier accidents. Not only that, but men also have more aggressive citations like driving under the influence (DUI). Male drivers age 16 to 19 are most likely to cause an accident and thus pay the highest rates.
• Vehicle theft costs us all – Owning a car with an alarm system can get you a discount on your insurance. Theft deterrent systems such as LoJack tracking devices, vehicle tamper alarm systems or GM’s OnStar system help track and prevent your car from being stolen.
• Liability safeguards assets – Liability insurance kicks in when you are ruled to be at fault for personal injury or accident damage. Your liability coverage provides for a legal defense up to the limits shown on your policy. Liability is cheap as compared to coverage for physical damage, so drivers should carry high limits.
• High credit scores equal low prices – Credit history factor in calculating your insurance rates. Drivers with good credit tend to be more responsible as compared to drivers with lower credit ratings. Therefore, if your credit score leaves room for improvement, you could potentially save money when insuring your 2013 Infiniti QX if you clean up your credit.
• Buy a safe car and pay less – Cars with five star safety ratings get lower rates. Safer cars reduce occupant injuries and reduced instances of injuries translates into savings for insurance companies and more competitive rates for policyholders. If your Infiniti QX earned at least four stars on Safercar.gov you may pay a lower rate.

Tailor your car insurance coverage to you

When choosing proper insurance coverage, there isn’t really a one size fits all plan. Coverage needs to be tailored to your specific needs.

Here are some questions about coverages that might point out whether your personal situation may require specific advice.

• What is no-fault insurance?
• Does coverage extend to Mexico or Canada?
• Does my medical payments coverage pay my health insurance deductible?
• Do I need replacement cost coverage on my 2013 Infiniti QX?
• Is Motor Club coverage worth it?
• Does car insurance cover theft of personal property?
• What is roadside assistance coverage?
• Can I rent a car in Mexico?
• Can I pay claims out-of-pocket if I buy high deductibles?

If you’re not sure about those questions, then you may want to think about talking to an agent. To find an agent in your area, complete your zip code. It is quick, free and may give you better protection.

Coverages available on your insurance policy

Understanding the coverages of insurance can help you determine which coverages you need at the best deductibles and correct limits. Insurance terms can be confusing and coverage can change by endorsement.

Comprehensive insurance – This coverage covers damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply then your comprehensive coverage will pay.

Comprehensive insurance covers claims such as damage from flooding, damage from a tornado or hurricane and a tree branch falling on your vehicle. The highest amount a insurance company will pay at claim time is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Collision – This pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from a collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. A deductible applies and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision insurance covers claims like hitting a parking meter, driving through your garage door, backing into a parked car and crashing into a building. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. It’s also possible to increase the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Auto liability – Liability coverage protects you from damage or injury you incur to other’s property or people that is your fault. It protects you from claims by other people. It does not cover damage to your own property or vehicle.

Liability coverage has three limits: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. Your policy might show limits of 25/50/25 which stand for a $25,000 limit per person for injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $50,000, and a total limit of $25,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Some companies may use a combined limit that pays claims from the same limit without having the split limit caps.

Liability coverage pays for claims like funeral expenses, medical expenses, repair bills for other people’s vehicles and legal defense fees. How much coverage you buy is a personal decision, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) – Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage gives you protection when the “other guys” either have no liability insurance or not enough. It can pay for injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants and also any damage incurred to your Infiniti QX.

Since many drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. So UM/UIM coverage is very important. Usually these limits are identical to your policy’s liability coverage.

Med pay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP) – Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance kick in for expenses for things like EMT expenses, prosthetic devices and funeral costs. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if you do not have health coverage. Coverage applies to not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and also covers any family member struck as a pedestrian. PIP coverage is not universally available and may carry a deductible

Power to the consumer

As you prepare to switch companies, make sure you don’t reduce coverage to reduce premium. In too many instances, an insured dropped liability limits or collision coverage only to regret that saving that couple of dollars actually costed them tens of thousands. The proper strategy is to buy a smart amount of coverage at the lowest possible cost, but don’t skip important coverages to save money.

People change insurance companies for a number of reasons such as lack of trust in their agent, poor customer service, questionable increases in premium and being labeled a high risk driver. Regardless of your reason for switching companies, finding the right car insurance provider is not as hard as you think.

Some insurance companies may not provide online price quotes regional carriers only sell through independent agents. Lower-priced car insurance can be purchased both online as well as from insurance agents, so compare prices from both to have the best rate selection.
