Factors that Influence the Costs of Car Insurance in Nebraska

In Nebraska, the average annual cost of car insurance is slightly lower than the national average. However, individual car insurance premiums can vary significantly based on personal factors such as driving history, vehicle type, and credit score.

Here are some factors that insurers typically take into consideration when determining your rate:

  • Driving History: Drivers with clean records typically pay less, while accidents or violations can increase premiums.
  • Age and Experience: Younger or less experienced drivers are considered higher risk and usually face higher rates.
  • Vehicle Type: Cars that are expensive to repair, more likely to be stolen, or have high performance often cost more to insure.
  • Coverage Level: The more protection you choose — for example, what many people call ‘full coverage’ (typically a combination of liability, collision, and comprehensive) — the higher your premium will be.
  • Credit Score: In many states, insurers use credit-based insurance scores to predict risk, affecting your rate.
  • Annual Mileage: The more you drive, the higher your risk of an accident, which can lead to higher premiums.
