17 Year Old Auto Insurance ? Teenage Car Insurance
Reader Question: Is it possible for a 17 year old get his own auto insurance?
That is a very good question! A 17-year-old, although a teenager, is not considered legally able to enter into a contract, but certainly old enough to drive a car on public roads. I suspect that most car insurance companies will require a parent’s signature to validate the contract and to be financially responsible.
I would start making phone calls to local car insurance providers for quotes but there really shouldn’t be any reason that you could not get coverage. Now a huge price tag may be another issue.
You might want to contact the state car insurance bureau or dmv to see what the restrictions there are for a minor to own a car and to to have it insured in your state.
