What are the usual rates for car insurance for a 17 year old?

Question

17 yrs., female, driving a 91 honda civic, has straight A's and has never been in any accidents while having a permit for almost 2 yrs.?

Our insurance person said it would be 40 a month, but this seems a little high.

I was just wondering what u think i should pay or what you pay

Answer 1

what!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you think 40 a month is high? i pay 150 a month and i'm 19 years old. the average is about 120 so i think you're not accurate.

Answer 2

I payed 70 a month before my accident now its 105 a month.

Answer 3

See this http://gsx1.com/InsuranceComparison.html take the quote, they'll come back with prices from different insurers in your area. It's very quick and free of charge.

But to find a cheap price you should get several quotes, do some legwork till something better will come along.

Answer 4

40 a month is actually very cheap

Answer 5

Every company have different rates and it also depend on what you drive. Consider this one, they can give you the best and fit coverage for a driver like you.

Answer 6

Actually, that seems a bit low, although it may be because of the age of the car.  You might want to call around for different quotes to get an idea.

Answer 7

It depends on which state you live in, and what the coverage is, but I would consider 40 per mo a good rate. And it will stay down as long as there aren't any accidents or tickets.

Many companies offer a good student discount, and offer more discounts after proving safe driving skills. I know AAA offers an added discount for young drivers if they complete a safety class.  

You could always try doing a progressive quote because they supposedly give you compared quotes to other competitors. When I tried it they said they couldn't find comparable policies, so I didn't actually get any results.
