Handyman Insurance, Insurance Premiums are Heavily Based on Drivers and their Driving History
Auto insurance premiums are heavily based on drivers and their driving history and since a newly licensed teen does not have a record operating an automobile, their rates remain more costly than older age groups until they gain enough experience to prove that they are responsible drivers.
Although insurers may not have a driving history to go by, there are other ways teens can reduce the cost of coverage. Most importantly, teenagers and all drivers for that matter, need to drive safely and obey traffic laws at all times; driving irresponsibly and ignoring traffic laws increases the chances of obtaining tickets and being involved in traffic accidents which in turn will lead to increased rates. On the other hand, if a teenager maintains a clean driving record for three years they may be eligible for a good driver discount that can reduce premiums significantly.
