Practical Car Insurance

I’m sure all of us are looking for ways to save on paying for our insurance premiums. If you want to know how you can lower your premium, here are some factors that may help you:

1.Driving Violations – having a record of accidents or driving violations (such as speeding tickets, DWI, etc.) means that you are at a higher risk for accidents and will mean higher premiums.
2.Driving experience – the more years you’ve been driving, the lower the premiums, which is why teenagers have the highest premiums of all age groups.
3.Accident Claims – insurance companies will check on the accident claims you’ve made in the past. The more claims, the higher premiums.
4.Occupation – There is a statistical correlation between your occupation and risk. A salesman who drives around a lot is more likely to have a higher premium than his secretary who sits behind the desk all day.
5.Vehicle Type – the cheaper the car, the less it takes to insure it, get it?!
