How to Get Affordable Car Insurance in Maryland
Overview
In Maryland, having car insurance is not just advisable?"it's the law. Failing to comply can lead to severe penalties, including revocation of your vehicle registration and confiscation of your license plates. Maryland requires drivers to carry liability insurance, uninsured motorist (UM) coverage, and personal injury protection (PIP). If you have a financed car, your lender will likely require collision and comprehensive insurance as well.
Getting affordable car insurance can be a challenge, but there are several strategies to help you save money.
Tips for Affordable Car Insurance
Drive Safely
Commit to driving safely and legally. Speeding tickets and driving under the influence can lead to significant increases in your insurance premiums that may last for years. Staying within the law keeps your rates low.
Student Discounts
If you're a student maintaining a B average or better, you may qualify for a Good Student Discount, which can reduce your premiums by about 5%.
Senior Discounts
Drivers aged 55 and older might face age-related rate hikes. However, many insurance companies offer discounts?"up to 10%?"to seniors who complete a refresher driving course.
Evaluate Coverage for Older Cars
If your car is fully paid off and has low value, consider dropping collision and comprehensive coverage. This can significantly decrease your insurance costs. Keep in mind that without these coverages, you’ll need to pay for any repairs out of pocket if there's an accident.
Increase Your Deductible
Raising your deductible?"the amount you pay out of pocket when you file a claim?"can lower your monthly premiums. Ensure this amount is affordable for you in case of an accident.
Comparison Shopping
To find the most affordable insurance, compare policies from different companies. Use at least three comparison websites to ensure you’re getting the best rates.
By applying these strategies, you can tailor an insurance policy that suits your needs and budget while securing peace of mind on Maryland's roads.
