In most cases it is up to you, the driver, to ensure that your auto insurance company offers you the minimum required.
Specific ways to save money on auto insurance:
1. This scenario is the auto insurance equivalent of guaranteed access to low-priced auto insurance that takes care of every possible repair, including damage already done, until the day the car falls apart so completely it’s unsalvageable (death) or reaches 200,000 miles (Medicare), regardless of whether she even changes the oil (takes care of herself) in the interim. In case you don’t have coverage and you do get suspended, you can still get an auto insurance policy before the date of suspension.
And, if you use a homeowner’s insurance company that also covers your auto insurance as well, chances are you will get the bulk, discounted rate. Also, remember that you can qualify for a better deal from your current auto insurance company if you have many insurance policies with them such as a combination of car, home and life insurance, which can cost cheaper as a group when compared to buying individually. Most states and most countries will require a certain level of cover, from full comprehensive car insurance to third party auto insurance.
Most states require all drivers living within their borders to carry a minimum level of auto insurance. If you own a home, ask about combining your homeowners insurance with your auto insurance. It is often found that auto insurance premiums for the same car model and similar coverage, differ from one car insurance company to another.
Unlike an auto insurance policy however, a notary bond is simply a guarantee that the funds will be available should a loss occur. So in case your car is damaged the auto insurance company will pay for rental costs, (sometimes only for a few days). If you are renting a car in another country you should definitely consider purchasing coverage at the rental counter as most personal auto insurance policies only cover their owners in the country where the policy was written.
When you change auto insurance companies, the new agent or insurer can generally change carriers while you wait.
