Can anyone here give me some quick auto insurance guidelines? It is for my mom who is a senior citizen. We live here in Michigan and she really only drives to the grocery store and back once or twice a week.

As far as a quick auto insurance guide goes, it is very wise of you to have gone to the Internet for information on how to avail auto insurance. Unlike popular belief, the Internet is not a quite dangerous setting for business transactions. It’s only as dangerous as in the real world. The only thing you have to do when dealing with auto insurance companies here on the Internet is to check beforehand the validity of these auto insurance companies. You can check out a list of licensed auto insurance agents and writers, so that you can be sure that your auto insurance policy shall be 100% fraud-proof.

Now, to get to the topic of your mother’s auto insurance, this age group, the senior citizens, is quite lucky when it comes to auto insurance. If you do not know yet, senior citizens are entitled to at least 10% discount on almost every product and service available in the country. Making use of this discount is actually better than availing of a cheap auto insurance policy that wouldn’t protect your mom and her vehicle, especially in a large city such as Detroit, Michigan.

Remember that when it comes to the protection of your loved ones, quality always comes first. That is the most important auto insurance tip that I can give you.

Raise the deductible amount to the highest amount you feel comfortable with, the higher the amount the lower your premiums.

You MIGHT want to talk to your agent about having liability coverage only. This will cover the OTHER car in the event of an accident but will NOT cover your moms car, but if its an older car, and she does not drive much…the savings might out weigh the cons of  having to pay for her car repair in the event of an accident that her insurance pays.
