Insuring Your Teen Driver

Teenage Girl Driving

If you're the parent of a teenager who is getting ready to climb behind the steering wheel, insuring your new driver can be an expensive endeavor. This is because the risk of motor vehicle crashes is higher among 16 to 19-year-olds than among any other age group. We've gathered some helpful tips to help you keep your premiums as low as possible, and keep your teen safe and accident-free.

Add Your Teen to Your Auto Policy

Rather than setting up an independent policy for your teen driver, consider adding him or her as an additional driver on your auto insurance policy. Also, if you have more than one vehicle, keep costs down by designating which vehicle your child will be driving.

Deductible Considerations

Auto deductibles typically range from $100 to $1,000. By upping your deductible and using your insurance for big repairs, you can significantly reduce your premium.

Weigh Your Buying Decision

Wanting to get your teenager a new car to drive with the latest safety equipment is understandable, but you may be better off purchasing a safe, used vehicle in terms of premium prices.

Set Your Expectations For Safety And Minimize Distracted Driving

  • Restrict your teen's nighttime driving.
  • Do not allow them to drive with more than one other person in the car.
  • Ban cell phone use while driving.
  • Ride with your son or daughter occasionally to make sure they are keeping up with safety habits.
