Compare Senior Auto Insurance Rates
Reader’s Question:
Is it true that getting auto insurance for a 55-year-old person is more expensive as compared if you are only around 35 years old? I heard this from a friend. What does age has to do with auto insurance rate? Can you explain this? I am from Manchester, New Hampshire.

Every auto insurance company differs from each other. They have their own guidelines in setting auto insurance rate for a particular person.
Some car insurance companies do consider a person who is 55 years old as a safe age. Meaning a person from that age group still poses a lower risk to be insured. Thus, it is still inexpensive to insure a person from that age range. However, some auto insurance companies believe that a person who is 55 years old or above poses higher risk. That is because some auto insurance companies believe that a person’s ability to drive safely decreases as a person ages.
I would suggest asking your auto insurance agent about how age affects a person’s auto insurance rate in Manchester, New Hampshire. Also, bear in mind that auto insurance rate is not based in age alone. There are a lot of factors that insurers consider and one of them is driving record. I would suggest keeping a clean driving record at all times is one sure way of saving on your car insurance premium.
