Reader’s Question:

Im turning 50 this month and I am just wondering if I can get any discount from my insurance company? I have a clean driving record for several years already. I just want to lower my car insurance premium a bit.

Having a good driving record for years pays off.

Car insurance providers usually offer car insurance discounts for retirees who are getting some type of pension.

Additionally, insurance providers provide discount as well to senior drivers however, the age usually starts at 55 and older.

I suggest that you ask your insurance company if they provide discount if you renew your insurance policy. If you have been with the insurance provider for many years, you can get discounts as well for being a long time customer.

If you drive less and do not use your vehicle very often then you can take advantage of the low mileage discount. Other discounts are having safety features in your car, insuring more than one vehicle etc.

Many insurance companies will provide long-time policyholders with no claims and a clean driving record with a good driver discount.

You may also enroll in defensive driving class to get safe driver discount.

Hope this helps!
