The cost of insuring a vehicle in Missouri revolves around the policy purchased, the driver’s record, the car being driven, and a few other factors. While we can’t provide an exact number for what you will pay for your coverage in this article, we can refer you to our quote comparison tool and show you ways to decrease your premium cost.

Quotes in MO
car insurance quotes for Missouri drivers can most easily be found when you use the quote comparison tool on online auto insurance’s website. Located at the center of the homepage is a white box requesting the local zip code. Once entered, a new page will open with a list of questions for the applicant to fill out. These questions are regarding the driver, the vehicle, and the coverage they would like to purchase for their policy. For better details, the questions ask for information that is fairly basic about the driver, such as their name, age, address, and driving record. Nothing too personal will be asked, even a driver’s license number and social security number can be omitted from these answers because we don’t necessarily need them to provide an accurate quote. As long as the applicant provides accurate answers, they will get an accurate quote. As for information regarding the vehicle that needs insurance, things like the VIN, the current mileage, estimated annual mileage, make, model and year of the car will need to be given. Finally, with the coverage wanted, there is a list of offered types and amounts on the page. All the applicant needs to do is highlight the desired coverage and amount, as well as any other additional options to be put on the policy.

When the answers are submitted, online auto insurance turns them in to local insures (which is why the applicant gave the current address in the beginning) and then provides the applicant with a list of quotes for coverage from those insurers. Compare the quotes to find the lowest price, or compare the companies to see which company will provide you with the best service. This tool is a great way to find out in numbers how much you would pay for automobile insurance coverage if you switched to another company.

How Much Can You Save?
Many drivers wonder how much they can save on their insurance premium, and the answer is, as much as possible! There are different methods people use to save on their coverage cost, and we are more than willing to share some of those ways with you. The first way a driver can save is by using the quote comparison tool, as described above. When a motorist knows what prices are being offered by competing insurers, they can switch to the lowest price and save from their current price. It’s an easy method that doesn’t take much time at all, contrary to popular belief. Our quote tool only takes a few minutes to complete and the policy can be purchased online. Or, the motorist can contact their insurer with this new price and see if they would be willing to match it and stay their customer.

A second way to save on MO car insurance is by having a great driving record. Not you? That’s okay, keep working on it. One of the best ways to pay less for coverage is by not having tickets or accidents on your driving record. These drivers with spotless records are assigned a low level of risk, which in turn gives them a lower premium for the same coverage. If your driving record is clean, do your best to keep it that way and continue driving safely. Anyone who does not have a clean driving record can work on it by paying attention to traffic signs and other traffic laws while driving. Eliminate distractions in the car that will help you pay better attention to the road and your surroundings to help clean up your driving record and keep it clean.

A third way to save, and a very popular method, is to take advantage of discounts that are offered by your insurer. Discounts are offered to motorists who meet certain criteria and are eligible for such savings. There is a good chance that you or a member of your policy can qualify for at least one discount. Contact your insurer to find out not only what you qualify for, but all of the discounts that are offered so you can work towards receiving those as well. To name and explain a few, there is the good student discount where a student with a certain high grade point average qualifies for a discount. They get this discount solely because the insurer feels the student has proven they can perform well in stressful school situations and can do well in stressful driving situations as well. The senior citizen discount is just as it sounds, a discount for drivers of a more mature age group. There are discounts for vehicles which have certain safety features. These features decrease the chance of a vehicle being stolen or they help the passengers inside avoid more serious injuries if used correctly.

Missouri auto insurance
Missouri state law does require all drivers to hold some type of financial responsibility, and most people decide to purchase auto insurance coverage to abide by this law. The state requires that its drivers purchase a minimum of $25,000 bodily injury liability per person and $50,000 per accident, with $10,000 in property damage liability. Also required is uninsured motorist liability in the amounts of $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident. With these minimum requirements, a policyholder is protected from having to pay for their own medical bills up to the amount purchased IF the person that hit them was uninsured. If the policyholder caused the accident, they would not be covered medically or otherwise from this minimum coverage. The other driver’s injuries and property damage would be covered, however.

Any resident of MO who would like better coverage must purchase additional options for their policy. There are more ways a policyholder’s medical expenses can be covered, no matter who caused the accident, and have their lost wages and possible funeral expenses covered as well. This would be through the purchase of personal injury protection. Also wanted may be better coverage for their vehicle, which the repair of would not be covered in the minimum requirement. Comprehension and collision should be purchased to cover any kind of damage done to the policyholder’s vehicle, regardless of who or what was at fault of the accident. Using our quote comparison tool can help you figure out how much full coverage will cost.
