Ready to Hand the Keys to your Teen?

When your teen is ready to get his or her learners permit, have a conversation with your insurance professional so he or she can clearly explain the costs involved in insuring a teenage driver. The good news is, as your teenager gets older, insurance rates will drop—providing he or she has a good driving record.

  • Talk to your teen and explain how auto accidents impact insurance costs.
  • Add your teen to your insurance policy – this is generally less expensive than purchasing a separate policy and may also qualify you for a multi-vehicle discount.
  • Ask about discounts for good students or teens who complete safe driving courses.
  • Consider increasing your deductible. Higher deductibles generally equal lower premium costs.
  • Find out how your insurer assigns drivers to cars—if possible, assign your teen to the least valuable car. Just keep in mind that there can be no exceptions; your teen must use only the car to which he or she is assigned, even in an emergency.
  • When your teen heads off to college, you may be eligible for lower premiums, providing he or she leaves the car behind.

 

These are just a few of many considerations. Speak with a AAA Insurance agent today to get expert advice on protecting yourself and your teen driver.
