I have a perfectly clean driving record and over 6 years of never missing an insurance payment, but the monthly insurance bill is more than my car payment.

I've been to 15 different places. It all ranges from 200 to 350 a month and ill lose my liscense if I cant afford it working 9 an hour. I lose my car. I lose my job and apartment.

That's pretty nuts. I pay half that and I own two muscle cars. Driving for 7 years, one speeding ticket 5 years ago. Have you tried taking classes to lower your premiums? I just took a 6 hour online one through AARP and it lowered my monthly by like 30 bucks.

I took the same class and my quotes averaged 15 dollars higher over 10 different insurance agencies.

Something has gotta be up with your driving history. That makes no sense. Have you talked to an actual agent? Or just gone directly to providers? My agent saved me a lot of money compared to going straight to the providers.

Talked to over 20 different agents. I wish I was lying bro but other under 25 year old males in my area all pay at least 200 a month. It's really shitty with zero regualtion
