On Board Animals Can Cause Distracted Driving and Increase Auto Insurance Premiums!

PR Newswire iReach

LOS ANGELES, April 15, 2016 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Autoinsurancequotesave.com has released a new blog post explaining how to prevent an auto insurance cost increase because of distracted driving.

Distracted driving is the main cause of accidents and animals on board can cause a lot of distraction. Drivers should be careful when taking their animals on a ride in the car. If they are easily distracted, they should transport the pet in a safe and secure way.

According to statistics cited by the newly released article, "Nearly 90 percent of pet owners say they travel with their pets. And one survey from Nationwide Mutual Insurance found that 8 percent of drivers admit to driving with a pet on their lap."

Causing an accident increases auto insurance rates

Drivers who get distracted by their pets put their own and their pet's lives in danger. A small accident caused by a distracted motorist can be covered by a liability auto insurance plan, but rates will increase. The percentage can be somewhere between 20% and 30%. If the agency discovered that there was a pet in the vehicle, the rats can jump even higher.

An accident will not be easily erased from someone's record, which means that renewing a  policy will be just as difficult and expensive. Agencies will always look at the number of claims someone made over a short period of time. If the number of claims is too high, drivers will be considered high risk and will have to pay more.

Get cheaper auto insurance plans after an accident

Clients can now compare online car insurance quotes to find better coverage options if their current premiums have increased. Comparing auto insurance plans is now simple and completely free. A professional brokerage website like http://www.autoinsurancequotesave.com/ provides free price information about top plans in any area.

"Driving with a pet in your car can be dangerous. MAke sure you have the best financial protection in case the worst happens."  said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

Autoinsurancequotesave.com is an online provider of life, home, health, and auto insurance quotes. This website is unique because it does not simply stick to one kind of insurance provider, but brings the clients the best deals from many different online insurance carriers.
