Compare Auto Insurance Costs

Comparing auto insurance rates is a ton of work if you don’t understand the most efficient way to do it. You can spend countless hours discussing policy coverages with local insurance agents in your area, or you could use online quoting to get the quickest rates.

Many popular insurance companies participate in an industry program that allows shoppers to submit one quote, and every company can provide price quotes for coverage. This system prevents you from having to do form submissions to each individual auto insurance company.

The one disadvantage to getting quotes like this is that you can’t choose which companies you want to price. So if you prefer to pick from a list of companies to request quotes from, we have assembled a list of low cost auto insurance companies in your area. View list of insurance companies.

It doesn’t matter which method you choose, just make darn sure you compare the exact same coverage information on every quote. If you use different values for each quote it will be next to impossible to make an equal comparison. Quoting even small variations in coverages can mean a large discrepancy in price. It’s important to know that getting more free quotes will enable you to find lower pricing.

Cut your premium with discounts

Insurance can cost an arm and a leg, but you can get discounts that can drop the cost substantially. A few discounts will automatically apply at the time of purchase, but some must be specifically requested before you get the savings.

  • Homeowners Savings – Owning a house can help you save on car insurance because maintaining a house demonstrates responsibility.
  • Accident Free – Drivers who don’t have accidents pay less when compared to frequent claim filers.
  • Multiple Vehicles – Buying coverage for multiple vehicles on one policy qualifies for this discount.
  • Braking Control Discount – Vehicles equipped with ABS or steering control can avoid accidents and therefore earn up to a 10% discount.
  • Military Rewards – Being deployed with a military unit could mean lower rates.
  • Pay Now and Pay Less – If paying your policy premium upfront instead of monthly or quarterly installments you may reduce your total bill.
  • College Student – Youth drivers who attend school more than 100 miles from home without a vehicle on campus can receive lower rates.
  • Drivers Ed for Students – Require your teen driver to enroll in driver’s education if offered at their school.
  • Multi-policy Discount – If you have multiple policies with one company you may earn 10% to 20% off each policy.

Keep in mind that some credits don’t apply to the overall cost of the policy. Some only reduce the cost of specific coverages such as medical payments or collision. So despite the fact that it appears having all the discounts means you get insurance for free, car insurance companies aren’t that generous. Any qualifying discounts will bring down the cost of coverage.

What is the best insurance coverage?

When choosing the best insurance coverage for your personal vehicles, there is no “best” method to buy coverage. Every situation is different so your insurance needs to address that. For example, these questions might point out whether you might need professional guidance.

  • Are split liability limits better than a combined single limit?
  • Why does it cost so much to insure a teen driver?
  • How high should deductibles be on a 2013 GMC Acadia?
  • Does my policy cover me when driving someone else’s vehicle?
  • I have a DUI can I still get coverage?
  • Can I rate high risk drivers on liability-only vehicles?
  • Will my rates increase for filing one claim?

If you can’t answer these questions, then you may want to think about talking to an insurance agent. If you want to speak to an agent in your area, fill out this quick form or go to this page to view a list of companies.

Auto insurance coverage information

Having a good grasp of your policy can help you determine appropriate coverage and the correct deductibles and limits. Insurance terms can be impossible to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Listed below are typical coverage types found on the average insurance policy.

Insurance for medical payments

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage reimburse you for bills for things like hospital visits, X-ray expenses, chiropractic care, surgery and EMT expenses. They are often used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if you lack health insurance entirely. Medical payments and PIP cover all vehicle occupants and will also cover being hit by a car walking across the street. Personal injury protection coverage is only offered in select states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)

This pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive coverage protects against claims like damage from getting keyed, hitting a deer, damage from flooding and hail damage. The maximum payout a insurance company will pay at claim time is the cash value of the vehicle, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.

Liability

This provides protection from damage or injury you incur to other people or property that is your fault. It protects you from claims by other people. Liability doesn’t cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Coverage consists of three different limits, per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. You commonly see liability limits of 100/300/100 which stand for a limit of $100,000 per injured person, a limit of $300,000 in injury protection per accident, and a total limit of $100,000 for damage to vehicles and property. Alternatively, you may have a combined single limit or CSL that pays claims from the same limit rather than limiting it on a per person basis.

Liability can pay for claims like court costs, pain and suffering and funeral expenses. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is up to you, but consider buying as large an amount as possible.

Uninsured Motorist or Underinsured Motorist insurance

Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection from other drivers when they do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered losses include injuries to you and your family as well as damage to your GMC Acadia.

Because many people only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage should not be overlooked. Most of the time these coverages are set the same as your liablity limits.

Collision insurance

Collision coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in.

Collision coverage protects against things such as sustaining damage from a pot hole, sideswiping another vehicle, crashing into a ditch and colliding with a tree. This coverage can be expensive, so consider removing coverage from lower value vehicles. Drivers also have the option to bump up the deductible to save money on collision insurance.
