Average car insurance costs by age and gender in Alabama
A driver’s age is a major determinant when it comes to auto insurance premiums in most states, including Alabama. Young drivers have higher accident rates and less experience behind the wheel, so they tend to pay more for coverage. Fortunately, average rates tend to come down after age 25, provided you maintain a clean driving record. Men also tend to pay more for car insurance than women as they are statistically more likely to engage in risky and distracted driving.

Bankrate’s take: In most states, including Alabama, insurers can consider a driver's age and gender when determining their premium. Demographic groups that are statistically more likely to be involved in accidents will generally pay more than groups that have a low incident of filing claims. This is why young drivers, who have less experience behind the wheel and may be more likely to engage in risky behaviors like texting while driving, are likely to pay higher rates for their coverage. This is also why men tend to pay slightly higher rates than women — male drivers statistically are involved in more accidents than females.
Cost considerations for young drivers in Alabama
In most circumstances, teen drivers must be insured under their parents’ or guardians’ policy until they turn 18. Even though legal adults can purchase their own car insurance policies, it’s generally cheaper for young adults to stay on their parents’ or guardians’ policy as long as the carrier’s terms and conditions allow it.

The make and model of your vehicle is one of the biggest drivers of your car insurance premium.

How to save on car insurance in Alabama
There are several ways to save on car insurance in Alabama, some of which require little to no time or effort to access the savings.
- Gather multiple quotes: Shopping around for your coverage allows you to see the range of premiums that you might pay from different insurers, so you can pick the one that works best for your wallet. Getting quotes is simple and only takes a few minutes if the company you're interested in allows for online quotes. If not, a quick call to a licensed agent may help you save money on your policy.
- Make use of discounts: Almost every insurance company offers at least a few discounts, and many of them are easy to earn. You may be able to score some savings just by agreeing to receive your documents online rather than via postal mail, for example. Telematics programs are also a popular way for policyholders to save considerably with some insurers if they are safe and careful drivers.
- Take advantage of bundling: Bundling your policies, or buying more than one policy from the same carrier, is a common way to earn a discount — and it’s often the most impactful. Usually, this involves purchasing both an auto and home policy from your insurer, but some insurers will also offer discounts bundling for boat, RV or other types of insurance.
- Increase your deductible: Your deductible is the amount you pay before your insurance kicks in after an approved claim. It applies to some types of coverage, such as collision and comprehensive. Increasing your deductible is likely to reduce your premium, but keep in mind that you would need to have that amount available if you file a claim against your policy.
- Improve your credit: Insurers tend to offer the best rates to those with excellent credit history, since you are considered a lower claim risk than those with poor credit. It may take a while to improve your credit, but as a long-term savings strategy, it could save you money.
