How to compare auto insurance quotes online

Choosing the right car insurance is more than selecting the cheapest policy. Your policy must offer adequate coverage and meet your budget. Some of the key factors to consider include:

  1. Types of coverage and level you need.
  2. The premium rate.
  3. Deductible and policy limits.
  4. The carrier’s ratings, reviews, and responsiveness.
