Story of why teenagers get higher premiums.

Posted by editor

“My momma’s gon’ get me PHAT (pretty, hot and tempting) wheels!”

Most of the teenagers of today see cars as a status symbol. They drive around campus, strutting their new trucks, sedans and coupes to attract other bystanders. They even hitchhike everyone they see on the road. But of course, if you have your friends riding your backseats, partying with liquor and other types of booze, peer pressure sets in.

“Hey, how fast can this thing go?”

“Oh, I’ll show you!”

And a tragedy occurs. Teenagers are usually the reckless. They are more inexperienced compared to the mature/old population that’s why they get higher premiums.
