Reader’s Question:
I’m about to get my teenage daughter her first car. She’s a good student and I’ve enrolled her to defensive driving class also here in Rochester, MN. I heard that with those two things, I’d be able to get some discount on my insurance once I’ve added her under my name. Is this true?

It’s a known fact that having a teenager driver under your insurance’s name will definitely increase your premium, but still there are a lot of factors which could help you lower down your insurance rate.
And going back to your question, yes you are correct. Having a daughter who do good in school and had defensive driving school training can make you save more on your premiums. And other factors that you should take in consideration in getting a cheaper rate for your insurance are:
1. Teach your daughter the importance of keeping a clean driving record. Having a spotless driving history would result in getting lower premiums.
2. If it’s possible, send you daughter to a school which is 100 miles away from your place. You can avail of discounts if your teenager’s school is as far as that.
3. Have your teenager under your policy instead of getting a separate insurance for her.
4. Instead of giving you daughter “full’ driving privileges, apply driving restrictions to you her. This way she’ll learn how to follow rules right from where it should start – your home.
I also feared that moment when my son started driving here in Rochester, Minnesota. I know for a fact that I would be paying more and more on my insurance. But there’s still hope for all of us parents. Just follow those tips and you’ll surely have lower premiums than what you’re expecting.
