Reducing Auto Insurance Premiums for Teens
|
|
Having a teenager included on your auto insurance policy will always cost substantially more,
but there are ways to reduce the premium increase.
|
|
The best cars for teen drivers are slower, bigger cars with a lot of safety features. Teenager's
are more prone to accidents, especially ones caused by speeding. A disproportionate number
of teenage car accidents involve only one vehicle.
|
|
Make sure your teen drives safely. One speeding ticket or fender-bender can send your
teenager's auto insurance rates sky high. Require that they take a drivers education class at
their high school or local DMV.
|
|
Good student teen driver insurance rates can save up to 25% on your teenager's auto
insurance if a "B" average is maintained.
|
|
Assuming your teen keeps a good driving record, the cost of insuring them will decrease as
they get older.
