More discounts equal less premium

Car insurance companies don't list every discount very clearly, so here is a list some of the more common as well as the least known car insurance savings. If you're not getting every credit you qualify for, you're paying more than you need to.

  • Federal Employees - Being employed by or retired from a federal job can earn a discount up to 10% with a few car insurance companies.
  • Good Student - A discount for being a good student can save 20 to 25%. The discount lasts well after school through age 25.
  • Distant Student - Children who live away from home and do not have access to a covered vehicle may be able to be covered for less.
  • New Car Discount - Buying coverage on a new vehicle can be considerably cheaper compared to insuring an older model.
  • Accident Forgiveness - Certain companies will forgive one accident before raising your premiums if your claims history is clear for a certain period of time.
  • Discount for Life Insurance - Companies who offer life insurance give a discount if you purchase life insurance from them.

As a disclaimer on discounts, most credits do not apply to the entire policy premium. Most only reduce individual premiums such as comp or med pay. So despite the fact that it appears you could get a free car insurance policy, car insurance companies aren't that generous.
