Commerical Van Insurance Discounts?
Reader’s Question:
I heard commercial van insurance companies in Maryland offer discounts for security device system but I am just wondering what security devices are they. I need to get discount on my car insurance because I cannot afford it any longer. Do you know any car insurance companies who offer this kind of discounts?

Generally, most insurance companies in Maryland and in other states will allow to get anti-theft or security device discount which would apply to Comprehensive coverage.
The discount that you can get may vary from one insurance company to the other but typically this can save you up to 5% to 20% savings and this is usually applied to car with a passive disabling device which renders the fuel, ignition or starting system inoperative.
Most newer car models have this type of system already installed as standard equipment. The car insurance discount will usually also apply to cars with LOJACK devices. Usually, proof of installation, such as a receipt or service order must be provided as a proof.
Do not worry, a lot of Maryland car insurance companies are offering this type of car insurance discount. Other than that, you can also take advantage of other discounts as well such as low mileage discount, good driver discount and defensive driving discount.
Auto Insurance Rate in Maryland
Reader’s Question:
I’m wondering if an insurance policy in Baltimore, Maryland is written with two adult names and one of them dies, is the premium lowered?

Good question Frances. If there are two adults on an insurance policy and one of them is taken off of the policy (for many reasons, such as death), then the rate can be affected. It may possibly be lowered, it depends upon the rating system and if the insurance policy premiums were higher at all due to the second adult driver being on the insurance policy.
Contact your insurance agent in Baltimore, MD since insurance guidelines and rating systems differ, to find out how your specific insurance companies rating system works and how your rates would be affected in this type of situation. If your rates would not be lowered you can compare by shopping online if you have internet access, for better car insurance rates. The only rating factor difference that some rating systems may see for is a widow versus single, but typically a widow rating variable would cost less than a single rating variable.
