  • Anti-lock Brakes - Anti-lock brake equipped vehicles can reduce accidents and will save you 10% or more.
  • Auto/Home Discount - When you combine your home and auto insurance with one company you may save 10% to 20% off each policy.
  • No Charge for an Accident - Some insurance companies allow you one accident before raising your premiums so long as you haven't had any claims for a certain period of time.
