Get Snapshot from Progressive
Snapshot rewards you for good driving
Progressive’s Snapshot program personalizes your rate based on your actual driving. It's technically called usage-based insurance. That means you pay based on how and how much you drive instead of just traditional factors. In most states, you’ll get an automatic discount(See Disclosure) just for participating and a personalized rate at renewal depending on your results. While your rate could increase with high-risk driving, most drivers save with Snapshot. In fact, Snapshot rewards drivers with an average discount of $145.(See Disclosure)
