Rates are impacted by these things

Insurance rates for your 1992 will vary greatly subject to many criteria. Including but not limited to:

  • Traffic citations increase rates
  • Your credit history
  • Male drivers pay higher rates
  • The deductible you choose
  • Crash test rating for your 1992
  • No claims lowers premiums
  • Maintaining coverage lowers rates
  • Home ownership saves money

One last important factor that helps determine the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. Models that are new cost more so the payout to repair will push premiums up. But new models may have options including adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning system, and pedestrian detection so those may help offset higher rates.

Auto liability insurance

1992 liability coverage provides protection from damage or injury you incur to other's property or people in an accident. Liability insurance covers claims like pain and suffering, repair costs for stationary objects, and legal defense fees. This coverage is usually fairly inexpensive so purchase as much as you can afford.

Collision protection

Collision insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from colliding with a stationary object or other vehicle. You have to pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage. Collision coverage makes up a good portion of your premium, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to choose a higher deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive insurance

Comprehensive insurance coverage covers damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You need to pay your deductible first then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The maximum amount your auto insurance company will pay is the market value of your vehicle, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle's value consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Uninsured or underinsured coverage

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage provides protection when the "other guys" either have no liability insurance or not enough. Since many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is very important.

Med pay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP)

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance reimburse you for immediate expenses for things like EMT expenses, pain medications, and nursing services. They can be utilized in addition to your health insurance plan or if there is no health insurance coverage. Personal injury protection coverage is not universally available and may carry a deductible.
