Frequently asked questions

Which violation will raise my rates the most?

A DUI will raise your rates by the largest amount in Omaha. Drivers with a DUI on their record should take extra time to shop around and compare rates in order to find the most affordable coverage they can.

Do I need to have uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage in Omaha?

Drivers in Nebraska are required to have uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage of at least $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident. This will protect you if you are involved in an accident where the driver at fault does not have sufficient coverage so you may want to consider raising your rates beyond the state minimums.

What does comprehensive coverage cover?

Comprehensive coverage, sometimes called “comp coverage,” covers the types of damage that aren’t caused by a car accident, like damage from extreme weather, animals, fire, vandalism and theft.

Methodology

Policygenius has analyzed car insurance rates provided by Quadrant Information Services for every ZIP code in all 50 states plus Washington, D.C. For full coverage policies, the following coverage limits were used:

Bodily injury liability: 50/100
Property damage liability: $50,000
Uninsured/underinsured motorist: 50/100
Comprehensive: $500 deductible
Collision: $500 deductible

In some cases, additional coverages were added where required by state or insurer.

Rates for overall average rate, rates by ZIP code, and cheapest companies determined using averages for single drivers ages 30, 35, and 45. Our sample vehicle was a 2017 Toyota Camry LE driven 10,000 miles/year.

Rates for driving violations and “Poor” credit determined using average rates for a single male 30-year-old driver with a credit score under 578.

Some carriers may be represented by affiliates or subsidiaries. Rates provided are a sample of costs. Your actual quotes may differ.
