Teen Car Insurance Policy Texas

Jan 27

Posted by admin in Teen Auto Insurance Houston | Comments off

Reader’s Question:

Is it possible for a 15 year old like me to get car insurance in Texas if I only have a learners permit?

John

Houston TX

Most young drivers may satisfy legal requirements in auto insurance in Texas by being added to their parents’ car insurance policy. It maybe very costly to add the young driver to their parent’s car insurance policy but it is much cheaper than getting a separate policy. You may want to speak with your parent’s current auto insurance company if you want to be added.

If you wish to get your own car insurance policy in Texas then it is possible if you only have the learners permit but as a minor you will be required to have your parent or legal guardian to have sign the legal documents with you. Some insurance companies though will not allow you to get your own policy unless you are fully licensed.

After the start of your insurance policy, most insurance carriers would want you to get full license in a specific amount of time. Insurance companies’ guidelines differ so I suggest that you speak with them to get more information.

All of your moving violation will show up on your driving record for a period of five years with the exceptions of serious violations such as DUI/DWI or driving without insurance which will stay on your record forever. This is according to the Texas Department of Public Safety.

So the DUI will stay on Texas driving record forever the surcharge given to the motorist for this violation normally remain on your record for a period of three years. Sometimes an insurance provider look back at someone’s driving history for ten years. But the average look back years of the insurance company for the driving record is typically five years.

Additionally car insurance companies can add penalties or surcharges to your auto insurance premium for serious violations, such as a DUI, and accidents resulting in property damage of $1,000 or more.

After years of saving and borrowing my mom’s car, I’m going to buy my self my first car finally! Now, I’m doing some research about auto insurance here in Texas. I came across property damage and physical damage, aren’t those two the same?

Nick

Houston, TX

Congratulations on buying your first car!

Going back to your question, property damage and physical damage are both types of auto insurance coverage and they differ from each other. Let me just give you an explanation of those to give you a clearer understanding.

Property damage coverage is a kind of auto insurance coverage that pays for the damages you have caused to another party’s vehicle or property. Deductible is not offered on that kind of coverage.

On the other hand, physical damage coverage refers to collision and comprehensive coverage. Collision coverage pays for the damage on your car if it collided with another property or vehicle or object. Meanwhile, comprehensive covers you for the damage incurred on your car because of non-vehicular related accident like hail, fire, theft, vandalism etc. In general, these coverages have different deductibles.

For more information, you could seek the help of your auto insurance agent in Texas to better help you in getting cheap auto insurance rates.
