If you currently have car insurance, you will most likely be able to save some money using these tips. Finding affordable coverage is easy if you know what you’re doing. But car owners do need to learn how the larger insurance companies sell insurance online and apply this information to your search.

Compare free insurance coverage rate quotes

Comparing insurance coverage rates can be challenging if you aren’t aware of the fastest way to get free quotes. You could waste time talking about coverages with local insurance agents in your area, or you could save time and use online quoting to achieve your goal.

The majority of car insurance companies participate in a marketplace where insurance shoppers send in one quote, and every company returns a rated price based on that data. This system prevents you from having to do quote requests to each company.

The only drawback to doing it this way is that you can’t choose which insurance companies you will receive quotes from. So if you want to choose specific insurance companies to receive pricing from, we have a page of insurance coverage companies in your area. Click here to view list.

It doesn’t matter which method you choose, just make absolute certain that you use identical coverages for each comparison quote. If you are comparing different values for each quote it will be impossible to find the best deal for your Saturn Outlook. Even a minor difference in coverage limits could throw off the whole comparison. Keep in mind that getting more free quotes increases your odds of finding more affordable rates.

Get cheaper insurance rates with discounts

Companies don’t always advertise every policy discount in an easy-to-find place, so the list below contains some of the best known and the more hidden ways to save on insurance.

• Low Mileage – Keeping the miles down on your Saturn can earn lower prices due to less chance of an accident.
• Good Student – Performing well in school may save you up to 25%. This discount can apply up to age 25.
• Accident-Free Discounts – Good drivers with no accidents can save substantially as opposed to insureds who have frequent claims or accidents.
• New Vehicle Savings – Buying a new car model can save up to 30% due to better safety requirements for newer vehicles.
• Accident Forgiveness Coverage – Not a discount per se, but a few companies such as Geico and Allstate permit an accident before hitting you with a surcharge with the catch being you have to be claim-free for a particular time prior to the accident.
• Driving Data Discount – Insureds that choose to allow data collection to spy on vehicle usage by using a telematics device like Allstate’s Drivewise might get better premium rates if they exhibit good driving behavior.
• Federal Government Employee – Having worked for a branch of the government could provide a small rate reduction for Outlook insurance with certain companies.
• Sign Online – A handful of insurance companies give back up to $50 for signing up digitally online.
• Resident Student – College-age children who are attending college and do not take a car to college could qualify for this discount.

A little disclaimer on discounts, some of the credits will not apply to the entire policy premium. The majority will only reduce the cost of specific coverages such as comprehensive or collision. So despite the fact that it appears you could get a free insurance policy, it just doesn’t work that way.

A list of companies and a partial list of their discounts are:

• Geico includes discounts for seat belt use, emergency military deployment, five-year accident-free, membership and employees, and daytime running lights.
• Travelers has savings for home ownership, IntelliDrive, multi-policy, payment discounts, new car, and student away at school.
• Nationwide may have discounts that include accident-free, anti-theft, family plan, defensive driving, and multi-policy.
• Farmers Insurance offers premium reductions for teen driver, youthful driver, homeowner, distant student, bundle discounts, business and professional, and early shopping.
• Esurance discounts include DriveSense, good student, homeowner, anti-theft, and anti-lock brakes.
• State Farm has discounts for accident-free, passive restraint, defensive driving training, multiple autos, and Steer Clear safe driver discount.
• Progressive offers discounts for continuous coverage, good student, online signing, homeowner, multi-policy, and online quote discount.
• Mercury Insurance may include discounts for type of vehicle, good student, multi-car, location of vehicle, and annual mileage.

Before buying, ask every prospective company what discounts are available to you. Some credits might not be available to policyholders everywhere. If you would like to view providers that offer many of these discounts, click here to view.

Tailor your car insurance coverage to you

When buying adequate coverage for your vehicles, there is no perfect coverage plan. Your needs are not the same as everyone else’s and a cookie cutter policy won’t apply. These are some specific questions may help highlight if your situation could use an agent’s help.

• Do I need higher collision deductibles?
• Am I covered when renting a car or should I buy coverage from the car rental agency?
• How can I get high-risk coverage after a DUI?
• Do I pay less for low miles?
• Do I have coverage when using my vehicle for my home business?
• Do I need rental car coverage?
• Does coverage extend to my business vehicle?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions but one or more may apply to you, you may need to chat with a licensed agent. To find lower rates from a local agent, simply complete this short form or you can also visit this page to select a carrier

Specific coverage details

Understanding the coverages of insurance aids in choosing the right coverages for your vehicles. The coverage terms in a policy can be difficult to understand and nobody wants to actually read their policy. Shown next are the usual coverages found on most insurance policies.

Uninsured or underinsured coverage

This protects you and your vehicle from other drivers when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. It can pay for hospital bills for your injuries and also any damage incurred to your Saturn Outlook.

Since many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. So UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family.

Collision insurance

Collision insurance covers damage to your Outlook from colliding with an object or car. You first must pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.

Collision can pay for claims like sideswiping another vehicle, crashing into a ditch, rolling your car, damaging your car on a curb and crashing into a building. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so consider dropping it from lower value vehicles. It’s also possible to increase the deductible to bring the cost down.

Medical expense coverage

Med pay and PIP coverage provide coverage for bills such as chiropractic care, EMT expenses, nursing services and hospital visits. The coverages can be used in conjunction with a health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. They cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants as well as being hit by a car walking across the street. PIP is not an option in every state but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage

Liability car insurance

This will cover damage that occurs to a person or their property that is your fault. It protects YOU against other people’s claims, and doesn’t cover your injuries or vehicle damage.

Coverage consists of three different limits, bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. Your policy might show limits of 50/100/50 which stand for $50,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a total of $100,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and a total limit of $50,000 for damage to vehicles and property.

Liability insurance covers things such as repair costs for stationary objects, attorney fees, legal defense fees and medical services. How much liability coverage do you need? That is your choice, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as much as you can afford.

Comprehensive protection

This will pay to fix damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. A deductible will apply and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.

Comprehensive insurance covers claims like a tree branch falling on your vehicle, rock chips in glass, falling objects, a broken windshield and damage from getting keyed. The most a insurance company will pay at claim time is the market value of your vehicle, so if it’s not worth much more than your deductible it’s not worth carrying full coverage.
