Finance, How To Get The Best Rates On Automobile Insurance In Maryland



by Larry Nez

Everyone wants to get the best rate on automobile insurance in Maryland. And it’s no wonder since everyone who drives an automobile on any public road in Maryland is required by state law to carry liability insurance, uninsured motorist (UM) insurance as well as personal injury protection (PIP) insurance.

Failure to carry at least the minimum insurance required under Maryland state law carries severe penalties, including but not limited to the revocation of your car’s registration plus the confiscation of your car’s license plates. Additional penalties may be imposed by the courts.

Fortunately there are ways for you to keep the cost of your automobile insurance under control.

Start with your own driving habits. If you speed or drive when intoxicated or while under the influence of any illegal substances and you are caught you can expect your automobile insurance rates to go sky high and you will have no one to blame but yourself.

If you are under 25 years of age you can save money every month on your car insurance by staying in school and maintaining at least a “B” grade point average. “B” students are rewarded with a Good Student Discount on their automobile insurance.

Drivers who are 55 years and older may get some relief from high automobile insurance premiums by passing a driver’s refresher course. Check with your insurance agent to see if your insurance company has such a program. Many do.

If you only drive a few miles per week talk to your agent about a limited use discount. If you primarily use your vehicle only for shopping, doctor visits and similar local errands then you may be entitled to a considerable savings on your insurance.

If your vehicle is old or has little or no Kelly Blue Book value then you may be wise to cancel your collision and comprehensive coverage. Canceling these two coverages can save you considerably on your monthly premiums, although you need to be aware that if you should have a claim the cost for repairing your vehicle will come solely from your own pocket.

If it makes economic sense, increase your deductible. Your deductible is the amount of money that you will be responsible for any time you have a claim. The higher your deductible, the lower your monthly automobile insurance premiums will be.

Now that you have a good idea of the various factors which can contribute to a lower automobile insurance premium, it’s time for you to get online and start comparing different policies and prices at different insurance companies. Fortunately there are literally dozens of websites that make such comparisons a breeze.

If you truly want to get the best rates on automobile insurance in Maryland you really need to fill out the form on at least 2 and preferably 3 different comparison websites. In this way you can be more assured that you will be seeing the rates of all automobile insurance companies that are licensed in the state of Maryland.
