Cheap Car Insurance For Young Driver in California
Reader’s Question:
Can I get a separate insurance policy with a different insurance company for an additional car in the household? I planning purchase another vehicle and add my 18-year old son as an occasional driver. My current insurance provider said that my car insurance rates will double because they said the car that I am planning to purchase will be driven primarily by my son. I checked different quotes with a different insurance company with myself as the insured and my son as an additional driver and the quote was very low. We live in Baldwin Park California.

Yes, you can purchase a separate insurance policy for the new car from a different car insurance company in some situations but all insurance providers have to be informed of all drivers and exclude them or rate them on the their car insurance policy.
Additionally, many insurance companies will require the liability limits to be the same on all insurance policies because both policies can be held responsible in certain car insurance claim situations.
You may shop around for car insurance quotes for all the cars to be placed on one insurance policy online.

There are several factors that affect your premiums to go up or go down:
1. Driving Record. Were you able to maintain a clean driving record? If you have, then you’re up for a discount.
2. Age. Are you less than 25 years old? If you are then, you’re just up for higher premiums. Auto insurance companies offer higher rates to younger drivers because they are often involved in vehicular accidents as compared to older drivers.
3. Type of car. Are you driving a sports car? a fancy car? If you are, then you might want to consider getting an inexpensive car first. The higher the value of a car, the higher the rate for it to be insured.
4. Driving Miles. Do you drive more? If your driving miles is less than 10,000 miles per year then you’ll surely get lower rates. The more driving miles an insured driver has, the higher the risk of getting in an accident so the higher your premiums will be.
5. Your place of residence. Do you live in a rural area? If yes, then you’ll have lower rate. Insured drivers who live in urban areas are more prone to be involved in accidents and thefts as compared to a peaceful place like in rural areas.
Those are just some of the factors which can help you determine if you’ll get cheap car insurance rates or not. Don’t forget to check websites to compare auto insurance rates. I hope you’ll find the best insurance that will work for you.
