Budget Car Insurance Quote

Clarence Said:

help finding a car insurance quote?

We Answered:

Call your parents insurance agent. Tell him or her that you are working on a class project. I'm sure that they would be happy to give you a pretty accurate estimate of the cost of auto and health insurance for a 22 year old.

Does Progressive have an option to cover insurance if I rent a car ('cause I didn't see it on their website)?

it tells you in the contract they sent you with the bill

Jennie Said:

Cheap car & insurance for young male driver?

We Answered:

The only reason he's getting quotes as cheap as £1000 is because he's over 21. New drivers are usually £2k+, he'll not get much better than that I'm afraid.

Bruce Said:

Is a car dealership allowed to let you drive off the lot with liability insurance?

We Answered:

The answer to the title of your question is simple. Yes, the dealership can let you drive off without liability. Dealerships will need proof of insurance to get a deal funded from the bank and in that circumstance, the dealerships have insurance companies that will issue a binder that is just comp and collision. The reason for this is because the banks want insurance to protect the car. These binders though are generally only good for roughly 10 days. Thats the bad news, Now I have been in the car business for over 25 years, and here in Los Angeles, where premiums are some of the highest in the country, I have never heard of car insurance being that high even if the customer was young, but with a dui or 2 maybe. I have insurance people that write with companies like state farm that could get you full coverage here for about 120 a month. You need to deal with agents directly and not brokers. Most companies like geico and AIS and others like that are not insurance companies themselves, but are just insurance brokers. Unfortunatly for you, there is no legal action that you can take you are just stuck. But if you would like, email me and I will talk with one of our agents and if they can write policies for where you live, then I will put you in touch with them. I am sorry this has been a bad experience because buying and enjoying a car is supposed to be fun. Take care and let me know if you have any more questions.
