Car insurance rates influenced by these factors

Insurance rates paid to insure a 1996 can fluctuate considerably depending on several factors. Including but not limited to:

• A clean driving record keeps rates low
• Credit rating impacts rates
• Your gender can raise or lower rates
• Higher deductibles save money
• Crash test rating for your 1996
• No claims lowers premiums
• No coverage lapses saves money
• Home ownership saves money

One last important factor that will help determine the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. A newer vehicle have a higher replacement value so the cost to replace them may result in higher rates. Conversely, newer models may have options such as adaptive cruise control, blind-spot warning system, autonomous braking, and anti-lock brakes which may provide discounts that lower premiums.

Liability coverage - This coverage protects you from damage or injury you incur to a person or their property by causing an accident. Liability can pay for claims like pain and suffering, repair costs for stationary objects, and legal defense fees. Coverage is generally pretty cheap so purchase as high a limit as you can afford.

Collision coverage - Collision coverage pays for damage to your from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. A deductible applies then your collision coverage will kick in. This coverage can be expensive, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Another option is to choose a higher deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive coverage - This will pay to fix damage from a wide range of events other than collision. A deductible will apply then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The most your auto insurance company will pay is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider dropping full coverage.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage - Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage gives you protection from other drivers when they do not carry enough liability coverage. Due to the fact that many drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their limits can quickly be used up. So UM/UIM coverage is important protection for you and your family.

Medical payments coverage and PIP - Med pay and PIP coverage pay for immediate expenses for things like EMT expenses, pain medications, and nursing services. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance program or if you do not have health coverage. Personal Injury Protection is not available in all states but can be used in place of medical payments coverage.
