Auto Insurance Questions
What is the minimum car insurance required in Missouri? expand_more
Missouri requires liability limits of $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident for bodily injury, $25,000 for property damage, plus uninsured motorist coverage of $25,000/$50,000. Those minimums are low compared to what a serious accident costs, so I recommend at least 100/300/100 to protect your assets.
What auto insurance coverage do you recommend? expand_more
For most households, liability limits of at least 100/300/100 ($100,000 per person, $300,000 per accident, $100,000 property damage), matching uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage, and comprehensive and collision on any vehicle you couldn't afford to replace. I tailor it to your vehicles, drivers and assets.
Can I get better coverage and still pay less? expand_more
Yes, and it happens more often than people expect. Carrier pricing changes constantly, so if nobody's checking your policy, you're probably leaving money on the table.
A client was paying $7,424 a year for home and auto. I got her to $5,168 with home liability up from $100K to $500K, auto liability up from 25/50 to 100/300, her roof covered at full replacement cost, and water backup added. That's $2,256 back in her pocket every year.
Why did my auto insurance rate go up even though I didn't have any claims? expand_more
Auto rates have climbed across Missouri and nationwide because of higher repair costs, more expensive parts, longer repair times and more severe weather. Even if you're claim-free, carriers adjust rates based on overall losses in your area. As an independent agent, I shop multiple carriers at renewal to make sure you're still getting the best available rate.
How does a speeding ticket affect my car insurance in Missouri? expand_more
A speeding ticket typically raises your rate at your next renewal, and most carriers keep it on your rating for three to five years. How much it costs depends heavily on the carrier, since each one weighs violations differently. That's exactly when shopping across multiple companies pays off.
Should I add a teen driver to my policy or get them their own? expand_more
Almost always, adding them to your policy is cheaper than a separate one. To keep costs down, use good student discounts and defensive driving courses, and put your teen on the oldest, least valuable car. Call me and we'll run the numbers for your situation.
