(Note: At different points in this guide, we may refer to automobile insurance by its more commonly known name, “car insurance”. But we’re still speaking about insurance for the different types of automobiles (cars, trucks, SUVs), and not just cars.)

 

Have you ever seen a turtle walking around without its shell?

 

There’s a good reason why not. It’s because the turtle needs the protection of that shell. Similarly, you and your car need the protection of insurance. Even if it’s not required in your state, it just seems right to have it.

 

Now since most of us will need auto insurance, one would think we would care a great deal about it. But no, the reality is that most people don’t really care much about auto insurance and know very little about it. They simply go out and buy some of it just because they need it to drive their cars around.

 

And that’s not right. Because you should, at the very least, know what you’re getting in return for your money. But more importantly, you should be shopping around to find the right amount of auto insurance protection that suits your lifestyle and budget, since auto insurance is not a “one-size-fits-all” type of service.

 

That’s where we come in. The fine folks here at Insurance Policy Authority have assembled this starter guide to teach you everything you need to know about auto insurance.

 

It doesn’t matter who you are, whether you’re a student, working, or even retired. As long as you have plans to own and drive a car, you’re going to need to know about auto insurance, and we’ve designed the perfect guide to teach you all about it.

 

This guide caters to everyone. Including those on a budget, who want to purchase auto insurance protection at the most affordable price; as well as those who don’t mind spending a bit more to get the right amount of protection. It doesn’t matter if you’re a person who’s never had auto insurance before and is completely new to the topic; or someone who currently has auto insurance and knows quite a bit about it. This guide is a great way for everyone to learn all the important information they need to know about auto insurance.

 

Simply put, this guide is the best learning tool on the market.

 

It is information-packed yet very easy to go through. We specifically designed it in a way so that the average person could understand and relate to the material.

 

This system works great for both new customers and those who already have auto insurance. It will guide you in choosing the right amount of auto insurance that works for you.

 

For first-time shoppers, this means a direct path to their perfect policy.

 

And for current policy owners, this means an opportunity to possibly save some money on auto insurance by making adjustments to their current policy or by switching to another insurance company that’s offering a better deal. Even if you don’t end up saving money on your current policy, at the very least you will have a clear understanding of what you’re currently getting.

 

(Note: An insurance policy is a contract/agreement you sign with the insurance company detailing information such as the amount of insurance protection you’re getting, as well as the price for that amount of protection.)

 

Our amazing guide includes unique visual aids such as charts and diagrams to help with the learning process. We wanted to make things as easy as possible for you to understand.
 

Ultimately, we succeeded in doing so and we managed to take a topic (auto insurance) that is by its very nature technical and legal, or in other words “very boring”, and made it into one you’ll embrace with newfound interest.

 

Now we’re not saying that auto insurance will be the talk of the town and that you’ll want to tell all your family and friends about it. No, but what we are saying is that the way in which the topic is discussed in this guide will pique your interest just enough to keep you wanting to learn a bit more; and that will encourage you to go through the entire guide and ultimately get you the valuable information you need.

 

After completing this guide, you’ll be more knowledgeable about auto insurance and so be better prepared to make sound decisions when shopping around. The overall objective of this guide is to give you all the necessary information you need to know about auto insurance so that when it’s time for you to choose a policy/company, you’ll choose the best one available. We’re not here to tell you to buy auto insurance from company A or company B; rather, we’re here to give you the knowledge you need so you can make that decision on your own based on what each company is offering you. We’ll show you how to shop and compare multiple offers side-by-side using our revolutionary Offer Comparison Tool, which makes it super easy for you to spot the company offering the best deal.

 

The knowledge extends beyond shopping for the best policy; if you had an accident, you'll be so familiar with your auto insurance policy that you’ll easily remember all the important information. Making it a lot easier for you to manage the situation and be confident in knowing that you’re going about the right way to resolve it.

 

This is all we strive to achieve. To empower you with information so you can make the best decisions.

 

Before we start the guide, it’s important to note that this guide is in no way a “quick fix” solution to learning about auto insurance. A lot of other websites out there compete to be the “fastest” way to learn about it, but we don’t. Rather than doing that, we pride ourselves on being the most straightforward and logical way to learn about auto insurance.

 

Buying a car is a significant decision—one you should sit down and think through—and choosing car insurance deserves that same level of thought.You should take the time to go through the entire guide. We promise that you will benefit from doing so; if not financially (by saving money on your auto insurance), then simply by the knowledge you will receive. Trust me; you will see auto insurance in a whole new light.

 

So let’s get to it! Next, we head over to the Overview section to get a look at the layout of the entire guide.
