Hello Dave,
well usually insurance companies give you a break on auto insurance when you hit the ripe age of 25. So you dont have that long till. My recommendation would be search around and compare auto insurance from diff companies, this will help you find a lower rate when you turn 25.

You should see a nice drop when you hit 25 (at the following renewal)...are you married? Seems like it dropped then too...I know my son about threw a party when he hit 25...for him it was a substantial drop.

Hi Webb, the other posters are right. However, have you searched around for cheaper rate? Do you enjoy any discount on the rate? If not, then you may check if any such discount is available to you.

Depending where you live and how much coverage you have $110.00/month is either way too much or incredibly cheap. Also, how's your credit score? Big city and bad credit with high liability and physical damage = great deal. Rural area with good credit and liability only = shop around now, you're paying too much.

okay not a lie but a small misconception there is no MAGIC NUMBER . . . it depends on many other factors for example how many tickets / accidents you have . . . what type of car the year of the car and etc.

I think there are many factors which leads to lower your insurance premiums. Some of them are:

Here is a list of factors that affect your automobile insurance rates:

* Age - Age of 25+ lowers it down

* Gender - Women are statistically safer drivers.

* Marital Status - A married person will pay less than a single person

* Geography - Small cities, less traffic less premium.

* Vehicle Type - A less expensive car will cost less to insure than that a SUV with more bling.

* Accident Claims - A claim can bump up the rates

* Credit Rating - Better the credit better rates. Especially bad credit affects a lot in bumping the score.

* Occupation - do you do door to door marketing? Rates goes high! Less the traveling job, lower the rates.

* Driving distance to work - Miles driven each year . Years of driving experience .

* Business use of the vehicle - If you use your vehicle for business, rates are higher

* Theft protection devices (often results in discounts)

* Multiple cars and drivers (another opportunity for discounts)

* Multiple policies like Home owners etc
