PA Pennsylvania Auto Insurance Rates
Reader’s Question:
We are refining our auto insurance rates based on our local insurer’s policy in Pennsylvania. It seems there are discounts or lower rates for good drivers. How else can we control the cost?

You are right, there are auto insurance discounts for safe drivers. Auto insurance companies want safe drivers. They also are willing to reward them. Some programs reward drivers who have shown driving excellence over a three year period. If you are a relatively new driver, but have a very clean record since receiving your license, you should inquire about possible discounts for your auto insurance rates.
Auto insurance companies in Pennsylvania also offer discounts for drivers 55 years of age or more who have taken and passed approved defensive driving training courses. These discounts and programs depend upon the state.
If your driving record is clean for the past five years, you know you deserve a discount. Your auto insurance carrier will have a program for you. Your record cannot have any moving violations. If there are other operators on your auto policy, their records will be considered. There may be some contingencies to yield the biggest discount. Review your record and past coverage with your agent and I am sure he wants to help! Or yo may shop online starting with typing your zip code on the relevant space on this page. Happy shopping!
