Age Matters in Getting Auto Insurance

12/10/2020

Picture
​Age is one of the most significant factors when deciding your car insurance rates. Statistics suggest that injuries, or moving breaches, are more likely to occur in some age groups. Find out more about how the qualities of your auto insurance are affected by your age.
Why Age Matters
Age is affected by factors that impair driving performance, such as inexperience and immaturity for young drivers, limited mobility, and diminished cognitive ability for older drivers. The incidence and severity of car accidents in the US are strongly associated with age.

Young drivers have the highest accident frequency, but seniors over the age of seventy-five have the worst accident rate per kilometer driven when calculated for distance traveled.

What Your Age Group Mean for Auto Insurance

Some age groups are statistically more likely to be involved in collisions, such as young drivers and older drivers. For this purpose, insurance companies charge more for the rates charged by the groups in question.
  1. Young Drivers
    In more difficult cases, young people take more chances than the rest of the driving population and drive. Compounding this is a lack of driving experience for the young driver. All of this results in an injury rate that exceeds that of the driving population in general.

    Teens are more likely to find themselves focused on something other than driving while on the road when it comes to being distracted behind the wheel.

  2. Older Drivers
    Experienced drivers have more driving skills and road experience in their mid-30s to late-50s, which usually suggests lower accident rates. However, as drivers reach their 60s, the pattern starts to reverse slowly as age, and sluggish reflexes start to impair driving.

    Usually, insurers tend to charge seniors as they reach their 70s more dramatically. An 80-year-old driver would end up paying a little bit more than a 25-year-old.

Conclusion
Typically, teenage and young adult drivers pay the highest insurance rates because they are involved in more accidents statistically than motorists in other age groups. Once you reach 25 and above, rates will decrease and stop decreasing once you reach old age, then the rate will go higher.
