Cheap Auto Insurance for Student Driver
Reader’s Question:
I’m from Missouri. I just turned 16, and am looking forward to learning how to drive. Do I need to apply for auto insurance even if I’m just a student driver?
Janis

Sixteen is a very exciting age, especially now that you are getting behind the wheel. Not everyone your age is astute enough to ask about such boring details as auto insurance. Mostly teenagers learning how to drive for the first time are thinking about “When are my parents going to buy me a car?” or “Finally the freedom to go anywhere I want!”
So to answer your question – yes, auto insurance coverage is necessary for every driver. Getting a Learner’s Permit means that you have permission to drive but with certain limitations. Although your Learner’s Permit is just a temporary license, you are still required to carry financial responsibility, along with all the responsibilities that come from operating a motor vehicle in public roads.
There are two ways you can go about this. One way is that you can apply for your own auto insurance. There’s a lot of information on the Internet that can help you. Check out the sites of the various automotive insurance providers in Missouri. Each one offers their services differently. Knowing all your options will help you make better choices. You can also be covered under an existing auto insurance policy such as your parents’.
As a student driver you’re probably going to have to borrow their car for the first few occasions until such time as you get your own. It wouldn’t hurt to ask your parents about it. Being more experienced drivers, they could tell you a lot more on the nitty-gritty stuff of automotive insurance coverage.
One of the best ways to lower your annual premiums is to have a higher deductible amount.. Like a $1,000, is what I carry personally.
Now, if you are a claim free and safe driver like I am, you could be saving a ton of money each year on your premiums. People fail to realize that the deductible amount is only paid when they file a claim and their insurance company pays that claim.
Auto Insurance With Traffic Violation in California
Reader’s Question:
I received a ticket for not wearing a seat belt in California. Will my insurance provider find out this traffic violation?
Neve
Los Angeles CA
If you are convicted for the seat belt violation, the citation will appear on your CA driving record. Your insurance company will then know about this offense once they check your Motor Vehicle Record or MVR.
The car insurance rates should be according to the years of experience in driving, the mileage driven in a year and the driver’s safety record based on CA Proposition 103. The insurance companies can also use 16 optional rating factors, which received an approval from the CA Insurance Department. These factors may include the characteristics of the vehicle like the safety features, marital status, the location where the car is garaged, and the type of the car driven.
Your offense for not wearing a seatbelt may increase your rates since driver’s record is a rating factor for insurance providers. You can contact your insurance agent to find out the rating system of the company.
