College is a new milestone that comes with more responsibility. If you are a parent deciding to keep your child on your plan or a college student driving a car to school under your parents’ insurance, it is important to understand the insurance terms and how you or your child is protected. So today, we will uncover the importance of safe driving, where you drive, and the decision to stay on your parents’ plan.
To understand how your car insurance protects you, it is vital to know what premiums, deductibles, and policies are, as well as the types of car insurance coverage that college students should have.
This decision is on a case-by-case basis. Overall, the cheapest option is to stay on your parents’ plan. But this might not be the most convenient given your new location. If you move to a rural area, policy rates might be cheaper compared to a metropolitan area. Also, if your parents do not have the best driving record, getting your own might lower policy costs if you are a safe driver. The best way to decide is by getting car insurance quotes from agencies, as there may be discounts for college students.
