Better Car Insurance Rates for Georgians Wtih Good Credit Scores

A good credit score may mean a better car insurance rate for Georgians, according to Jim Wallace of the WALB News website.  Wallace reports that several insurance companies in the state of Georgia have chosen to lower their rates for car insurance customers with "top ratings," with credit scores being among the factors.  According to the site, now is a good time to shop around for the best car insurance rate if you have a good credit score.  Among the companies to consider is State Farm, Georgia's largest auto insurer, which lowered its insurance rates by one and one-half percent, on average.  Loss history, driver's record, and credit characteristics are also named by State Farm as determining factors, and the article states the fact that Georgia residents are driving fewer miles and avoiding more crashes as a reason for the lower rates.  Due to the changing economy, many insured drivers have the opportunity to "shop around" for the most competitive choice.  If you have any questions about insurance rates and choices, click here to order our free booklet, "How to Buy Car Insurance in Georgia."
