How much is car insurance in Idaho?
The cost of car insurance in Idaho depends on a variety of factors, including your age, driving history, claims record, ZIP code and more. Knowing on average how much car insurance is in Idaho can help you compare rates and make the best choice for your own policy. In Idaho, full coverage costs an average of $1,322 annually, while minimum coverage costs $335. Although minimum coverage is typically cheaper than full coverage, keep in mind that it provides limited financial protection in the event of an accident.
To determine average costs for car insurance in Idaho, Bankrate reviewed quoted premiums from Quadrant Information Services. In choosing top-rated providers, we also considered insurers’ third-party rankings per J.D. Power, financial strength per AM Best, coverage options, digital tool availability, discount opportunities and more. Then, we calculated a Bankrate Score on a 5.0 scale for each company. The higher the Bankrate Score, the better.

Average car insurance costs by age and gender in Idaho
In most states, including Idaho, a driver's age and gender greatly impact car insurance rates. The tables below show rates for 16-year-olds on their parents’ policy, as most drivers under 18 don’t qualify for an individual policy. Older drivers on their own policy can typically get cheaper rates because they have more experience behind the wheel and are statistically less likely to be involved in an accident.

Bankrate’s take: In every state except California, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Michigan, North Carolina and Pennsylvania, car insurance carriers are permitted to use gender when determining a driver’s premium. Because women tend to file fewer claims, car insurance rates for women are often nominally lower than rates for men in the same state.
Cost considerations for young drivers in Idaho
Young drivers cannot purchase their own car insurance policy until they turn 18. However, those ages 18 to 25 may want to consider staying on their parents' policy, if possible, since coverage would likely cost less than if they have their own policy, as shown in the chart below.

How to save on car insurance in Idaho
There are ways to mitigate steep car insurance rates in Idaho. First and foremost, maintaining a clean driving record will keep costs in check. A single DUI conviction in Idaho could raise your premium by an average of 65 percent. Here are some other ways to secure affordable car insurance in ID:
- Research your vehicle before you buy: Some cars are cheaper to insure than others. Sports cars, 4x4s and higher-value vehicles are commonly among the most expensive to insure. Getting a car insurance quote before you buy can help you find the best car to fit your budget.
- Increase your deductible: The deductible is the amount you pay before your coverage kicks in when you have full coverage. Increasing your deductible may result in a reduced premium price. Be careful, however, that you only increase your deductible to an amount you would be comfortable paying out of pocket if you have an approved claim on your policy.
- Drive safely: As we noted above, a clean driving record is likely to earn you a lower premium rate. If you've had marks on your record in the past, you may want to consider taking a defensive driving course to brush up on your driving skills. Many insurers will even give you a discount for taking one.
- Utilize discounts: Almost all carriers offer at least a few discounts to their policyholders. Many of these are easy to earn. You might be eligible for a discount, for example, if your car has airbags and antilock brakes. Other possible discounts may include paying your premium in full, receiving your documents via email rather than postal mail and, for teen drivers, maintaining a good grade point average.
