Which factors can lower your car insurance rate?

Your car insurance rate is based largely on factors unique to you and your vehicle, like your age, your location, your driving history, your car's make and model and age, and how you use the vehicle. These tips can help improve your car insurance rate factors:

• Avoid tickets and accidents: Any ticket or claim has the potential to increase your car insurance rate.
• Drive a safe car: A younger car with good safety ratings may qualify you for a better rate for comprehensive and collision coverage, as safer cars can be less likely to be involved in insurance claims.
• Pay attention to your location: Where you park your car and drive it is an important factor for determining how likely you are to file a claim or get in an accident. Living in less-populated areas and places less likely to experience car theft and car vandalism may result in lower rates. Plus, every state has its own car insurance requirements that determine the minimum amount of coverage you'll need (another rate factor).
