While you currently pay $150 a month, you may be able to find a lower rate elsewhere.
Requesting
car insurance quotes online
is a great way to look at your options. It allows you to customize your coverage and determine what you need. If you know you can only spend a certain amount of money on car insurance every month, this will allow you to find coverage within your budget.
If you don’t feel comfortable reducing your coverages or can’t find a lower rate, you can ask your current insurance company about discounts that can reduce your rate as much as 20%, such as:
  • Driving behavior programs or driver safety courses
  • Homeownership
  • Paying the policy in full
  • Good student
  • Multi-car
