Tips for cheaper Newark auto insurance rates
Newark drivers should always be thinking of ways to pay less for insurance, so take a minute and read through the money-saving ideas below and maybe you can save some money insuring your vehicle.
- Don’t be a negligent driver. Having a few at-fault accidents can really raise rates, potentially up to $1,286 per year for a 30-year-old driver and even as much as $804 per year for a 50-year-old driver. So be a cautious driver and save.
- Good credit scores mean better rates. Maintaining a high credit score could save a minimum of $418 per year versus a rating of 670-739. Conversely, a below average credit score could cost up to $484 more per year. Not all states use credit score as a rating factor, so check with your agent or company.
- Compare insurance cost before you buy the car. Different cars, trucks, and SUVs can have significantly different car insurance rates, and car insurance companies can sell coverages with widely varying rates. Get quotes before you purchase to prevent insurance sticker shock when buying insurance.
- Auto insurance is cheaper with higher deductibles. Raising deductibles from $500 to $1,000 could save around $300 per year for a 40-year-old driver and $588 per year for a 20-year-old driver.
- Pay small claims out-of-pocket. Car insurance companies give a discounted rate if you have not filed any claims. Auto insurance is intended to be used in the case of larger claims, not minor claims.
- Remove unneeded coverage on older vehicles. Removing comprehensive and collision coverage from older vehicles that are not worth a lot will cheapen the cost to insure substantially.
