Tips to Help Consumers Lower their Car Insurance Premiums

Tips to Help Consumers Lower their Car Insurance Premiums

Consider safety devices if you're buying or leasing a new car. For example, getting a automobile with anti‐lock brakes, side air bags, automatic seat belts and daytime running lights can help you save on car insurance premiums.

Install anti‐theft devices on your car, such as an alarm system or global positioning system so that your car can be located if stolen. Notify your auto insurance provider if you have these devices or have recently installed them.

Maintain a good driving record, as the number of accidents, DWI/DUI citations, claims and tickets directly affect your auto insurance premiums.

Call your insurance provider and ask about eligible discounts such as a multi‐car discount, good grades (for students under 25 years of age) and mature driver (for consumers between 50 and 65 years of age) among others.
