Bankrate’s take: Men typically pay slightly higher car insurance premiums than women because they are considered riskier drivers. However, drivers may be able to lower their rates with discounts like good driver rewards, professional association discounts and by bundling their car insurance with home insurance.

Cost considerations for young drivers in North Dakota

Older teen drivers may consider getting their own policy, but it’s important to understand the financial impact. While 16- and 17-year-old drivers must be included on their parents’ policies  and don’t have an option to get their own, drivers aged 18 and older can choose. However, staying on a parents’ policy can provide substantial savings on average.

How to save on car insurance in North Dakota

Beyond choosing where you live, there are often several ways to save on car insurance. When trying to find the best cheap car insurance in North Dakota, it helps to combine multiple strategies for savings. Everything from discounts to policy details to the kind of driver you are can play a role in reducing costs.

  • Pursue discounts: Many auto insurance providers offer discounts. These savings can be attached to different requirements. Rewards for paperless billing, safe driving history, policy bundling and vehicle safety features are some common examples. The more discounts you qualify for and use, the more you may save on your rates.
  • Reduce coverage: If you have more than the legally required amount of car insurance, you can reduce your coverage limits. Doing so will reduce your premiums, but it is essential to note that it comes at the cost of reduced financial security around your vehicle.
  • Increase deductibles: Higher deductibles can often lead to lower rates, but this can be a risky method if you don’t consider your full financial picture. Your deductible is the amount you’re responsible for out of pocket, while your insurance company covers the rest, up your limits. So, a higher deductible could reduce rates, but will cost you more out of pocket if you need to file a claim.
  • Drive safe: Your driving record is one of the main factors that contributes to auto insurance rate calculations. By going a significant amount of time (generally three to five years) without having any traffic violations or insurance claims, you can often reduce your costs.
