Well your cousin s right. The things you’ve mentioned do affect car insurance rates. I learned from my dad that adding another driver under your auto insurance policy will also increase your car insurance premium. This is because the more drivers you have under your policy, the higher the risk is to be involved in car accidents.

Also, if you change the vehicle being insured to something fancy or expensive that will also increase your car insurance rate. When my dad bought me an expensive car, the increase on his auto insurance rate is something I did not imagine.

And lastly, I remember, when I had my new expensive car, my dad added GAP insurance policy for that new car. By doing that, his auto insurance rate even becomes higher. So I guess it’s obvious that adding another insurance coverage would mean a change on your car insurance premium.

Those are just some factors I remember that caused an increase on my dad’s car insurance rate. You could always ask your car insurance agent in Greater Newark, Delaware for other factors that will cause an increased on your car insurance rate.
