The magic number used to be 26. When I turned 26 my insurance dropped like $1000 a year.

Keep your nose clean though, your insurance company cares what you've done longer than the police do.

Thank you for light at the end of the tunnel, I hate insurance so much, I was always told nobody wins until there is a total loss. Little scared to take that risk...

It depends on your area too but a lot on your age and keeping a clean nose. Don't get tickets, they're easy to avoid.

In my mid '40s, 2 drivers on the plan, 3 cars, something like $1500/yr living out in the country. It definitely gets better.

That's actually pretty good, yeah I don't have a problem either simply obeying the law, it just seems like it's going to take forever for that to get here.

Be careful what you wish for. 26 was a hard year for me, I'd already gotten married, passed the drinking age, voting age, gotten my license. Getting cheaper insurance was the last age related milestone I could see...

That's OK how much better could I really get, I belive the next milestones would be prostate exam and aarp magazines?

Life is pretty melancholy regardless the age it's like lettuce it's already pretty bad but gets worse with time.
