Reader’s Question:
My husband and I are going to buy a car for our son who is going to be a first time driver. What can we do in order to make sure that he can also get cheap car insurance here in Tennessee?

It can cost too much to have car insurance for first time driver because those who are below 25 years old are considered to have the highest risk to insure. It can be blamed on the statistics that show that young people are involved in the most number of car accidents. Insurers look into controlling their exposure on the road by giving higher car insurance premiums for drivers between 16 and 24 than drivers under a different age category.
An alternative in getting cheap first time car insurance is to add them to your current car insurance plan if he already has his permanent driver’s license. Your son can be able to benefit from some car insurance discounts as a named driver on your policy. Also, make sure that the car you will buy for your son doesn’t cost too much too insure. Older cars have lower premiums since the repairs/replacement parts won’t be expensive. If you plan to buy him a newer model car, make sure it has safety devices installed in it to lower the risk of having severe damages to the driver, passengers, other people and properties.
Nothing beats shopping around when it comes to getting cheap first time car insurance. In case you are looking into buying a used car for your son, be ready to inform the car insurance company about the make, model and year of the vehicle. By doing this, you can get accurate car insurance quotes from the insurers. These quotes can be beneficial in reaching a decision on buying separate insurance for your son or just include him on your car insurance policy in Tennessee.
