Finding Discount Auto Insurance Is Not Difficult
There are many companies that offer discount auto insurance on all types of car policies. You will automatically get a discount if you have never been in an accident or received a ticket in the last 3 to five years. You can also get additional discounts if you already have a different policy with that company as multiply policies are automatically discounted. Multi-vehicle policies also receive discounts and are great if you own more then one car.
Besides these general and well known discounts there are other discounts that may apply to you. It has been found that individuals with a college degree particularly in engineering of the sciences can receive lower auto insurance rates. Individuals with these types of degrees have less risk then other degrees. If you have a degree in biochemistry, engineering and other related fields then you can get an additional discount when purchasing a policy form the 21st Century Group. Generally about 10 to 30 percent can be saved as long as you have a good driving record.
Teachers are also considered to be a low risk group and many auto insurance companies including Ohio Casualty, 21st century Group, Horace Mann and Esurance offer additional discounts. An educator discount does have specific qualification, as you may need to be fully certified or teach in a specific state. Sometimes only full time college professors will receive this discount, but if you are a teacher then you should check with your insurance company. You may receive a substantial decrease to your insurance premium.
If you were in the army or currently in the army then you can save between 2 to 15 percent. This military discount does apply to specific states. Car insurance military discount is offered through Geico. Geico can also drop you coverage to only comprehensive if you are suddenly shipped overseas. If you receive hostile-fire pay then Geico will decrease your bill when you are overseas by an additional 25%.
AARP members can also get discounts of up to 45% on their car insurance through Hartford’s AARP Auto Insurance Program. They offer specific discounts on multi-policies and multi vehicle policies and additional discounts if you have held insurance with them for more then 5 years. Basically the longer you are with the company the more discounts you will receive.
MetLife will lower your auto insurance premium if you take and pass courses offered from the National Safety Council, particularly the defensive driving course. These courses can be taken online or you can order a complete course kit. If you have a lot of points due to accidents and tickets then taking a defensive driving course if a great way to lower your insurance payments.
It will take some additional research to determine if any of these additional discounts apply to you. You should have all of your questions if front of you and then speak with an insurance agent, as the online quotes will not include this additional information. By taking the extra time and thoroughly researching each company you may be able to lower your insurance premium quite significantly.
