I just got my License a couple of months ago and I put my Truck on the road (1983 Ford Ranger, First car, what can I say).

Insurance cost me like $1600 Canadian for one year, which is scam if you ask me. I'd hate to know what I'd be paying if I was to insure a new car.

I start off with a High rate for Insurance because of my Driving Experience, Which is crap, you shouldn't be punished because you are deemed a "Inexperienced/worse" driver, The only time they should charge you more money is if you get into Accidents and/or get a bunch of tickets.

And If I do get in a Accident or get a bunch of tickets, I could have my rate increased by up to 210%, that's fucking ridiculous..

And our Car Insurance is Handled by a Government owned Company here in British Columbia, Canada (Its called ICBC). I can't buy Car Insurance from anyone else but them, which sucks.

So... how much are you guys paying?

can't speak for myself victim as i'm only 15 but i often help my dad look for insurance on the net (UK) and he pays around £200 i think, but then he's only had 1 accident 20 years ago and is an experienced driver now - not looking forward to being in your situation in a few years time

I pay right at $1000 USD a year on a 2004 Ford Ranger 4x4. That is full coverage since I still owe money on the truck. I wrecked a similar Ranger about 6-7 years ago and totaled it out. I think about something in the $600-$700 range would be more appropriate. I'm 32 years old so some of you shouldn't feel so bad.

Too much.
lol - women want equality, meanwhile they pay less for car insurance.
Price drop is I think after 5 years with license and insurance with no incidents, when you get married, and when you turn 25. May vary depending on agent and country though.
