If you park your car on your parent's property, and never drive it anywhere, you might not need to have any insurance.

But if you are going to take that car out on the public highways, you need all sorts of different types of insurance to pay for medical expenses if anyone hurt in an accident, pay for repairs if any damage from accident, get another car if it is stolen, protect your assets (house, car bank accounts) from beign drained by law suits, and also keep you out of jail.

While you are living under your parent's roof, they can add you to their insurance policy … this will be expensive, but not as expensive as a policy in your own name.

Once you go to college, and live wherever the college is, no longer under your parent's roof, then you do need to have policy in your own name.

For auto insurance the most efficient way to get a very good rate is do a policy comparison on auto policies. Make sure that you pick similar options with the same limits, auto type, zip code, etc so that all options are a good comparison.

What I most often recommend is an internet comparison quote at http://www.lowratetoday.com since they have top name insurers and will give many quotes on car insurance polices.

Bolivia is like a Native American China. Some parts have wealthy western-like parts while most other parts of the country is dirt poor with peasant farmers.

Was a citation issued at the time of the accident? If not, it won't show up in the MVD. The insurance industry also has something similar to a credit report, called the CLUE report that lists past property and casualty claims made by you. That is used as well in determining your insurability.

Its too much.You can have whatever you want,you can go wherever you want.You can make as much as you want.Not just the us,but many countries,the wealth needs to be spread out,population must be controlled,earth must be first,mankind second,no more factory farms,you kill and clean what you eat.Its what is of worth that is warped and evil.

You should qualify for liablity insurance instead of full coverage. The actaul amount of insurance depends on what your car is worth right now, how old it is, your past driving record and your "hi risk" lable will definately have an effect. You'll have to get quoted at a few different places to be sure what company has the lowest rate for you.

Why do you call the 1st world evil? You think the U.S. does not give enough help to the world? Why does not thier government help thier own people instead of relying on every body else to help them. I come from a country that is only 122 Sq miles and our government did not say to hell with us people.
