This article will help educate you on how car insurance quotes work and some tricks to saving. If you have car insurance now, you will be able to save some money using these techniques. Louisiana vehicle owners just need to know the proper way to find the lowest price over the internet.

Don't pay full price with these discounts

Insurance can cost an arm and a leg, but you can get discounts to cut the cost considerably. Some trigger automatically when you quote, but lesser-known reductions have to be requested specifically before you get the savings. If you're not getting every credit possible, you are throwing money away.

Clubs and Organizations - Being a member of a qualifying organization may earn a discount when buying car insurance.
Multiple Vehicles - Having multiple vehicles on one policy could earn a price break for each car.
Student in College - Youth drivers who live away from home and do not have access to a covered vehicle may be able to be covered for less.
Life Insurance Discount - Select insurance companies reward you with a discount if you purchase a life insurance policy as well.
Save with a New Car - Adding a new car to your policy is cheaper since new cars are generally safer.
Anti-theft Discount - Vehicles with anti-theft systems prevent vehicle theft and qualify for as much as a 10% discount.
Payment Method - By paying your policy upfront instead of monthly or quarterly installments you may reduce your total bill.
Federal Government Employee - Active or retired federal employment can save as much as 8% depending on your company.
No Charge for an Accident - Certain companies permit an accident before your rates go up so long as you haven't had any claims prior to the accident.
Auto/Home Discount - If you have multiple policies with the same insurance company you may save up to 20% off your total premium.

Drivers should understand that some of the credits will not apply to all coverage premiums. Some only apply to the cost of specific coverages such as physical damage coverage or medical payments. So despite the fact that it appears all the discounts add up to a free policy, companies wouldn't make money that way. But all discounts will bring down your premiums.

The car insurance bait and switch

Consumers in Louisiana get pounded daily by advertisements that promise big savings by Allstate, GEICO and Progressive. All the companies have a common claim that you'll save big after switching to their company.

How does each company claim to save you money?

All companies are able to cherry pick for the driver that earns them a profit. An example of a profitable customer might be between 25 and 40, has no driving citations, and has a high credit rating. Any driver that hits that "sweet spot" will qualify for the lowest rates and therefore will save when switching.

Drivers who don't measure up to these standards must pay a higher premium and this can result in the customer not buying. The ad wording is "people who switch" not "everyone that quotes" save that much. That's the way companies can state the savings.

This illustrates why you should get as many comparisons as possible. You cannot predict which car insurance company will have the lowest rates.

In the end, you save

As you restructure your insurance plan, make sure you don't buy lower coverage limits just to save a few bucks. In too many instances, someone sacrificed comprehensive coverage or liability limits to discover at claim time that they should have had better coverage. Your focus should be to get the best coverage possible at an affordable rate while not skimping on critical coverages.

We just presented a lot of techniques to reduce car insurance prices online. The most important thing to understand is the more rate comparisons you have, the better likelihood of reducing your rate. You may even find the most savings is with an unexpected company.
