Cheapest for young drivers with one speeding ticket: Nationwide

Young drivers who got caught going too fast can find the best price at Nationwide. At an average rate of $5,861 per year, its rates were over $1,000 less than the cost of coverage when compared to other insurers. The good news for young drivers with a ticket is that their rates won't go up as much as if they'd gotten in an accident.

We were also big fans of Alfa Insurance's customer service. Alfa's complaint index at the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) was just 0.16, meaning that it received only 16% as many complaints as is typical for its size.

For an alternative with great customer service, look at Nationwide. It also had an impressively low NAIC complaint index and an above-average claims satisfaction rating from J.D. Power.

Minimum requirements for auto insurance coverage in Alabama

Drivers have to have a certain amount of liability car insurance in Alabama by law, as is typical in the U.S.

Liability
Minimum coverage
Bodily injury (BI)$25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident
Property damage (PD)$25,000 per accident
{"alignsHorizontal":[],"alignsVertical":[],"columnWidths":[],"data":[["Liability","Minimum coverage"],["\u003Cstrong\u003EBodily injury (BI)\u003C\/strong\u003E","$25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident"],["\u003Cstrong\u003EProperty damage (PD)\u003C\/strong\u003E","$25,000 per accident"]],"footnote":"","hasMarginBottom":true,"isExpandable":true,"isSortable":false,"maxWidth":"1215","showSearch":false,"sortColumnIndex":0,"sortDirection":"asc"}

We suggest purchasing more coverage than is required by state law, but shoppers should balance the increased protection against the increased premiums of paying for more coverage. In particular, drivers with a high net worth, or who regularly engage in high-liability activities (like driving at night or long distances) should consider getting more coverage.

  • 30-year-old man
  • Drives a 2015 Honda Civic EX

The base policy for the study was a full-coverage policy with the following limits:

Coverage type
Study limits

Personal injury protection$10,000
Property damage$25,000 per accident

For other rates analyses (age, credit score, accident history and marriage status) the base policy listed above was alternated to reflect the new driver.

ValuePenguin's analysis used insurance rate data from Quadrant Information Services. These rates were publicly sourced from insurer filings and should be used for comparative purposes only — your own quotes may be different.
