Women More Comfortable Negotiating Car Purchase, but Men Seek More Savings
By Aaron Crowe Haggling with a car salesman is “fun” for more women than men, but women aren’t using the opportunity to negotiate as much of a discount as the men are, a new study has found. Women car shoppers are becoming more comfortable negotiating a car purchase, and prefer to negotiate more than men […]

By Aaron Crowe A Michigan court is being asked to rule that a motorized scooter must have auto insurance, which could require the many elderly and disabled scooter drivers across the country to buy insurance that isn’t even offered yet. The case stems from a paralyzed man in Macomb County, Mich., who was hit by […]

How The CHP Is Cooler Than You: They’re Riding Harleys
By Aaron Crowe The throaty rumble of a Harley-Davidson motorcycle is a sound that’s hard to miss and easy to distinguish.

What Cities Can Do To Improve Pedestrian Safety
By Aaron Crowe Three major U.S. cities recently received $1.6 million from the federal government to improve pedestrian safety, but officials aren’t making pedestrians safer by making their cities more walkable. Instead, most of the money is being spent on ticketing dangerous drivers and monitoring crosswalks. Of the three cities to receive the grants from […]

What’s In A Name? Plenty, For A New Car
By Aaron Crowe For some things, such as a rose, what we call it really doesn’t matter. As William Shakespeare put it, “That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” For automakers, unfortunately, that doesn’t hold true when naming a new car. A name can be a good first […]

Crash Rates Fall For Older Drivers
By Aaron Crowe Thanks to safer vehicles being built, crash rates are dropping for drivers of all ages since 1997, but they’re especially falling for drivers 70 and older, according to a report. That may sound counterintuitive since problems normally associated with elderly drivers — poor vision, slower reaction times and mobility problems — can […]

December Is National Drunk And Drugged Driving Prevention Month

We can find you the best quotes for your unique circumstances, but we can’t change your driving record or other aspects that impact your insurance options. Here are a few things that can make a big impact now, and in the future.
-
Bundle your auto insurance with other policies
One of the easiest ways to save is by settling on a single insurer for multiple policies. Most insurance companies will automatically prorate savings and pass them along to you.
-
Consider a family or group insurance plan
Insurance costs are often lower if you share a policy with multiple people. Bundle each family member’s insurance or go in on a policy with a group to find lower rates.
-
Build your credit score
The better your credit, the easier it is to get a cheaper insurance policy. Insurance companies use this metric to determine insurance costs, so you’ll want to work on improving your credit to lower premiums.
-
Take a defensive driving course
If your driving record is a little rough, it can help to take a defensive driving course. Insurance companies often take that into account, and it can often lower your rates.
-
Purchase the right kind of car
Cars with safety and anti-theft features can help out your insurance prices, because they’re less likely to be stolen or damaged. Definitely take a look at these.
