Average car insurance costs by age and gender in Florida

From 30 on, car insurance rates in Florida generally decrease with age for drivers with a clean driving record.

Bankrate’s take:Car insurance rates are a calculation of risk. The more of a risk you pose to your insurance provider, the more they will likely charge you for your premium. Statistically, men have more serious car accidents and receive more moving violations like DUIs than females, which is why they often pay more for car insurance, regardless of age.

Cost considerations for young drivers in Florida

As a young driver, whether or not you’re insured on your own policy plays a significant role in the cost of your coverage. On average, young drivers in Florida pay 28 percent less by remaining on their parent’s policy while living with them.

How does driving record impact the cost of car insurance in Florida?

Car insurance rates in Florida will also differ depending on each driver’s driving record. For example, someone with a speeding ticket pays around 15 percent more than the state average. Having a DUI costs about 52 percent more, while an accident could increase rates by 35 percent more compared to the average car insurance cost in Florida.

Drivers with DUI convictions may have a harder time finding insurance, as not every insurance provider writes policies for drivers with DUIs. If you’re having trouble securing coverage, consider getting a quote from a Florida provider that specializes in high-risk auto insurance.

Florida car insurance rates by vehicle type

With different safety features, crash test ratings, repair costs and other factors, the type of vehicle you drive will affect your Florida car insurance rates. Comparing the make and model when shopping for cars can help you stay within your budget. For instance, drivers pay less than the state average when buying a Honda Odyssey, Ford F-150 or Toyota Prius. But if you’re looking at a BMW 330i, for example, you can expect to pay more.

How to save on car insurance in Florida

Florida may be one of the most expensive states in the country for car insurance, but there are a few things you can do that may help you save on your premium:

  • Shop for new quotes. Make it a habit to shop around for free online car insurance quotes at your renewal or after major life changes (like adding a teen driver or moving to a new ZIP code). Doing so may help to ensure that you receive the most competitive rate possible.
  • Take advantage of eligible discounts. It may be a good idea to ask your agent to review your policy for discounts or programs that could lower your bill. For example, you may be able to save on your car insurance if you install a telematics device in your car or complete an online defensive driving course.
  • Improve your credit score. Having a poor credit score in Florida can cause a large jump in car insurance costs. By paying your bills on time and only taking on debt you can make timely payments on, you could save on your Florida car insurance.
  • Maintain a clean driving record. Traffic violations and auto accidents can quickly lead to sharp rate increases. Safe driving can help prevent these incidents and can also lead to discounts in some cases. Many insurers will reward clean driving records and claims-free policyholders with added savings.

Methodology

Bankrate utilizes Quadrant Information Services to analyze the latest rates in June 2024 for ZIP codes and carriers in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. Rates include the most recent approved rate changes filed by insurance companies that affect our profile. These revised rates are then weighted based on the population density in each geographic region so that policyholders can see the impact rates have in their areas. Quoted rates are based on a 40-year-old male and female driver with a clean driving record, good credit and the following full coverage limits:

  • $100,000 bodily injury liability per person
  • $300,000 bodily injury liability per accident
  • $50,000 property damage liability per accident
  • $100,000 uninsured motorist bodily injury per person
  • $300,000 uninsured motorist bodily injury per accident
  • $500 collision deductible
  • $500 comprehensive deductible

To determine minimum coverage limits, Bankrate used minimum coverage that meets each state’s requirements. Our base profile drivers own a 2022 Toyota Camry, commute five days a week and drive 12,000 miles annually.

These are sample rates and should only be used for comparative purposes.

Credit-based insurance scores: Rates were calculated based on the following insurance credit tiers assigned to our drivers: “poor, average, good (base) and excellent.” Insurance credit tiers factor in your official credit scores but are not dependent on that variable alone. Four states prohibit or limit the use of credit as a rating factor in determining auto insurance rates: California, Hawaii, Massachusetts and Michigan.

Incidents: Rates were calculated by evaluating our base profile with the following incidents applied: clean record (base), at-fault accident, single speeding ticket and single DUI conviction.

Model: To determine cost by vehicle type, we evaluated our base profile with the following vehicles applied: BMW 330i, Ford F-150, Honda Odyssey, Toyota Prius and Toyota Camry (base).

Age: Rates were calculated by evaluating our base profile with the ages 16-70 (base: 40 years) applied. Depending on age, drivers may be a renter or homeowner. Age is not a contributing rating factor in Hawaii and Massachusetts due to state regulations.

Gender: The following states do not use gender as a determining factor in calculating premiums: California, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania.

Teens: Rates were determined by adding a 16- or 17-year-old teen to their 40-year-old married parents' policy. The rates displayed reflect the total cost of a driver this age added to their parents’ policy unless otherwise noted.
