Rates are determined by these things

Car insurance premiums for a 2005 can be significantly different subject to many criteria. Including but not limited to:

• Traffic citations increase rates
• Better credit means lower rates
• Male drivers pay higher rates
• Higher deductibles save money
• Crash test rating for your 2005
• Your claim history
• Having current coverage saves
• Home ownership saves money

An additional factor that can impact is the year of the vehicle. A newer vehicle have a higher value than older models so the payout to repair may end up costing you more. On the flip side, new models may have safety features like blind-spot warning system, sideview assist mirrors, tire pressure monitors, and pedestrian detection that may help provide discounts that lower premiums.

Liability coverages - 2005 liability coverage provides protection from damage or injury you incur to other people or property. Liability coverage protects against claims like pain and suffering, repair costs for stationary objects, and legal defense fees. This coverage is usually fairly inexpensive so you should buy as large an amount as possible.

Collision coverages - This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You first must pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage. 2005 collision insurance is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from older vehicles. Another option is to raise the deductible to get cheaper .

Comprehensive coverages - Comprehensive insurance will pay to fix damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You need to pay your deductible first and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage. The highest amount your auto insurance company will pay is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Uninsured and underinsured coverage - Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage gives you protection when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. Because many people only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. That's why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea.

Coverage for medical payments - Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance reimburse you for immediate expenses such as EMT expenses, pain medications, and nursing services. The coverages can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance policy or if you lack health insurance entirely. Personal injury protection coverage is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage.
