Tips to Get Lower Brusly Rates

Consumers need to have an understanding of the different types of things that go into determining auto insurance rates. Understanding what controls the rates you pay empowers consumers to make smart changes that could result in better auto insurance rates.

Listed below are some of the factors used by your company to calculate premiums.

  • Don't sacrifice liability coverage - Liability insurance provides coverage if a jury decides you are liable for personal injury or accident damage. Liability provides legal defense coverage up to the limits shown on your policy. Carrying liability coverage is mandatory and cheap compared to physical damage coverage, so do not cut corners here.
  • Do you know your deductibles? - Deductibles for physical damage represent how much money you are willing to pay before a claim is paid by your company. Physical damage coverage, otherwise known as comp (or other than collision) and collision, insures against damage to your car. A few examples of covered claims are colliding with a building, collision with an animal, and rolling your vehicle. The more money you have to pay, the less your auto insurance will be.
  • A clean driving record saves money - Whether or not you get tickets impacts your car insurance rates tremendously. Only having one speeding ticket can bump up the cost by twenty percent. Drivers who don't get tickets receive lower rates than bad drivers. Drivers with serious tickets such as DUI or reckless driving are required to submit a SR-22 form with the DMV in their state in order to continue driving.
  • Your occupation can affect rates - Did you know your auto insurance rates can be affected by your occupation? Occupations such as doctors, business owners and accountants have higher rates than average attributed to stressful work requirements and long work hours. On the flip side, occupations such as actors, athletes and homemakers get better rates.
  • Car features impact rates - Choosing a vehicle that has an advanced theft prevention system can save you a little every year. Anti-theft features such as LoJack tracking devices, vehicle tamper alarm systems or GM's OnStar system can thwart car theft.
  • Safer cars are cheaper to insure - Safer cars can get you lower premiums. Safe vehicles protect occupants better and better occupant protection means lower claim amounts and lower rates for you.

Are you getting all your discounts?

  • Homeowners Discount - Owning a home in Brusly can help you save on auto insurance because owning a home requires personal responsibility.
  • Discount for Good Grades - This discount can save 20 to 25%. The discount lasts until age 25.
  • Claim Free - Drivers with accident-free driving histories can earn big discounts when compared with accident-prone drivers.
  • Payment Discounts - If you pay your entire premium ahead of time instead of making monthly payments you could save up to 5%.
  • Fewer Miles Equal More Savings - Driving fewer miles can qualify you for discounted rates on garaged vehicles.
  • Lower Rates for Military - Being on active duty in the military could mean lower rates.
  • Auto/Home Discount - If you insure your home and vehicles with one insurance company you may save 10% to 20% off each policy.
  • Multi-car Discount - Buying coverage for more than one vehicle with the same company could earn a price break for each car.
  • No Charge for an Accident - A few companies permit an accident before hitting you with a surcharge so long as you haven't had any claims for a certain period of time.

Drivers should understand that most discount credits are not given to all coverage premiums. Some only reduce the cost of specific coverages such as physical damage coverage or medical payments. So even though they make it sound like you could get a free auto insurance policy, companies wouldn't make money that way. But all discounts will cut the cost of coverage.
