Insurance is gonna vary based on your specific info. It takes 15 minutes to get a quote, maybe try giving them a call.

So someone's gotta spit it out. Who has a bad driving record (well, "bad" as mine: two minor violations) and what insurance do you have/pay?

I'm looking at $350 a month right now for insurance and man does it hurt.

I'd be happy with a $250 a month rate at this point ($1,500 for 6 months).

Thanks for any advice

At least I know I'm not alone in this.

I can't believe it's 3 to 5 years for marks on a record to drop off in CA.

That's pretty unreasonable to me, I thought it was 18 months. I mean, if someone drove without violations for a year and a half I think that's good enough for forgiveness on a minor speeding violation (74 in a 55 on a clear open road? come onnnn).

I'm the furthest from a reckless driver. My other violation was so BS it's paaaainful. The light was yellow, and I slowed down making a right turn to check for traffic. During the slowdown it went red just as I crawled through it and the flippin camera got me. I know I'm still at fault (and stupid nonetheless to do so in the presence of a camera) without question, but it was so far from anything dangerous it's not even funny. I just became an example and some extra money for the state, nothing more.

In any event. Sometime in 2014 when I'm damn near 30 I'll finally see a drop in my insurance rate.

Sorry, just ranting. Seems like almost all you guys have clean driving records and don't need to hear my yammering. But all you newly licensed drivers out there, watch what you do!

Alright, I'm done

My friend who is under 25 asked me a similar question the other day but I couldn't answer his question.

His insurance is with State Farm along with his parents and siblings. Don't the insurance people usually ask who would be the main driver of the said car?
So say if he bought a 370Z and with his insurance, claim that his father would be the main driver, would his insurance rate be raised?
