An accident doesn’t disappear from your insurance history overnight. It can continue to affect your rates until it ages out of the insurer’s rating period.
That’s why timing matters. Shopping too early may not give you the savings or coverage options you expect.
A knowledgeable insurance agent can review your history, explain your options, and help you determine whether it makes sense to stay with your current carrier or start comparing rates.
The goal isn’t simply to find a cheaper policy. It’s to make the right move at the right time.
