Do Car Insurance Rates Increase for Seniors?
Is car insurance cheaper as you get older? Yes and no. In general, studies show that older drivers who are over 50 years old are relatively safe behind the wheel. They typically drive fewer miles and modify their habits in poor driving conditions, which can qualify them for discounts. However, as a driver’s age increases, so does their risk of being involved in an accident. That’s why drivers 70 years and older may pay a higher rate.
