Why is it Important?

Safety features on a car are not only important to safe driving, but they can also help to reduce your car insurance premium. That's right. There are safety features that lower car insurance rates. Insurance companies offer significant discounts on insurance of those cars that have specific safety features. Newer cars already have this built into the car before it is sold, so no special installation is required. This is partly the reason why newer cars are preferred by auto insurance companies.

With the recent news of Hollywood star Paul Walker’s horrific death in a Los Angeles car crash over the weekend, more information is being dispersed in the media on what types of car insurance are necessary in the event of an untimely, accidental death. Although no one likes to think it will ever happen to them, the fact of the matter is that it does occur and being prepared beforehand can help to alleviate some of the pain associated with such an immediate loss.
