How to save on car insurance in Nebraska
Saving on car insurance in Nebraska is highly possible thanks to a numerous amount of discounts available to drivers. Common discounts include:
- Multi-policy: One of the most common discounts available is the multi-policy, if you purchase your auto insurance coverage from the same carrier as your homeowners or renters insurance.
- Safety equipment: If your car is equipped with safety equipment, you should be eligible for further discounts. Safety equipment examples include anti-lock brakes, an anti-theft system, driver and passenger or side airbags or regular seatbelt use.
- Defensive driving: Most carriers offer a discount if you enroll and complete a defensive driving course. These courses can be taught online or in-person, and teach you valuable driving safety skills. The key to earning this discount is to make sure you take a course approved by the carrier so you earn credit and receive your discount.
- Paid-in-full: If you pay your annual or semi-annual premiums in full, instead of in monthly installments, then you are likely eligible for additional savings. Not only do you receive a discount, but you might avoid extra fees carriers sometimes tack on to the installment payments.
