Many factors go into determining your\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.freeway.com\/auto-insurance\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">car insurance<\/a>\u00a0premiums, including but not limited to age, gender, claims history, location, and credit score.*<\/p>\n<p>Remember, the cleaner your driving record, the lower your auto insurance premiums. Luckily, there are many discounts available that will help you save money on car insurance. Some of these discounts are awarded if you can prove ownership of anti-lock brakes, anti-theft devices, homes, and even a good student record.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, your car insurance rates could be affected by where you live. Zip codes with lots of car theft and auto accidents are subject to higher insurance premiums than safer and incident-free zip codes.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">What Is the Average Premium in Tennessee for Full Coverage Car Insurance?<\/h3>\n<p>The average annual premium for full coverage in Tennessee is $1,338, which works out to $112 per month.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.freeway.com\/auto-insurance\/coverage\/full-coverage\/\" data-wpel-link=\"internal\">Full coverage car insurance<\/a>\u00a0includes liability, comprehensive, and collision coverage.<\/p>\n<p>Liability pays for expenses incurred by other parties after an accident. Collision coverage goes towards the cost of vehicle repairs, and comprehensive coverage offers non-collision-related damages, such as theft and extreme weather.<\/p>\n<p>Paying an additional $50 to $100 a month with a lower deductible and higher liability limits can result in greater peace of mind in the event of an accident. To find out what discounts you are eligible for, check with your insurance agent.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">How Much Is It for Just the Minimum Required Car Insurance in Tennessee?<\/h3>\n<p>The average annual cost for state-required minimum insurance coverage is $371 or $31 per month.<\/p>\n<p>Remember, Tennessee is an at-fault state, meaning you will be responsible for paying for all medical and property damages \u2013 both yours and any other drivers involved \u2013 in the event of an accident if you are found to be at fault. The more liability insurance you can carry, the better.<\/p>\n<p>Once your insurance company has paid its share, you will be responsible out of pocket for the remaining bills due for yourself and the other driver(s).<\/p>\n<p>Note, any driver with lapsed insurance can be subject to a lawsuit, which may result in high legal fees, court appearances, and other methods of extracting penalties, including wage garnishment. Be sure to have the right auto insurance policy for your needs.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">How Do Rates Compare Across Major Cities in Tennessee?<\/h3>\n<p>Rates vary significantly depending on where you live. For example, residents of Hendersonville pay an average monthly rate of $38 a month for the state-required minimum, whereas residents in denser zip code areas, such as Memphis, pay an average of $59 a month. Generally, residents living in less populated areas pay lower auto insurance premiums due to the reduced risk of an accident and vehicle crime.<\/p>\n                <\/div>\n                        <div class=\"c-regional-page-table\">\n                <div class=\"c-regional-page-table__content\">\n                    <div class=\"c-regional-page-table__scroll\">\n                                                    <table class=\"c-regional-page-table__table c-regional-page-table__table--large \">\n                                                                    <tr>\n                                            \n                                                                                            <th>City<\/th>\n                                                                                            <th>Full Coverage Insurance<\/th>\n                                                                                            <th>Liability Insurance Coverage<\/th>\n                                                                                                                        <\/tr>\n                                                                                                                                            <tr>\n                                                                                            <td>Chattanooga<\/td>\n                                                                                            <td>$120<\/td>\n                                                                                            <td>$41<\/td>\n                                                                                    <\/tr>\n                                                                            <tr>\n                                                                                            <td>Franklin<\/td>\n                                                                                            <td>$110<\/td>\n                                                                                            <td>$37<\/td>\n                                                                                    <\/tr>\n                                                                            <tr>\n                                                                                            <td>Greeneville<\/td>\n                                                                                            <td>$118<\/td>\n                                                                                            <td>$36<\/td>\n                                                                                    <\/tr>\n                                                                            <tr>\n                                                                                            <td>Signal Mountain<\/td>\n                                                                                            <td>$114<\/td>\n                                                                                            <td>$37<\/td>\n                                                                                    <\/tr>\n                                                                            <tr>\n                                                                                            <td>Madisonville<\/td>\n                                                                                            <td>$122<\/td>\n                                                                                            <td>$39<\/td>\n                                                                                    <\/tr>\n                                                                                                <\/table>\n                                            <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                            <div class=\"c-state-table__text\">\n                    \n\n                            <p><p><em><strong>Methodology:<\/strong> We use the following methodology to arrive at our average cost: male, age 30, lowest possible legal coverage allowed by Tennessee.

A real-time database logs all active and non-active policies. All insurance companies are required to report to the state which vehicles are covered and which ones have lapsed coverage.<\/p>\n<p>If you receive a notice from the Tennessee Department of Revenue alerting you that your car insurance has lapsed, you need to take immediate action. Failure to respond within 30 days will result in a $25 fine, plus a final notice. Failure to respond within 30 days of the final notice will result in your registration being suspended and will cost you a $100 fine. Once your registration is suspended, you can no longer drive that vehicle on the roads in Tennessee.<\/p>\n<p>If you are convicted of driving without insurance, you can lose your driving privileges. It can cost you $65 for the reinstatement fee and $75 for failure to surrender license. These are just the possible penalties for a first-time offence.<\/p>\n<p>In Tennessee, if your license is suspended, you must file an SR-22 certificate for five years once your driving privileges are restored. If you have no other suspensions within three years, you may be able to cancel your SR-22.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">What Are the Mandatory Car Insurance Requirements in Tennessee?<\/h3>\n<p>The state of Tennessee requires <a href=\"https:\/\/www.freeway.com\/knowledge-center\/auto\/what-is-bodily-injury-liability-coverage\/\">liability coverage<\/a> to the tune of $25,000 in bodily injury coverage per person, $50,000 in bodily injury coverage per accident, and $25,000 in property damage per accident.<\/p>\n<p>Tennessee is an at-fault state, meaning the driver responsible for the accident is required to pay all damages. For this reason, it is very important to carry appropriate coverage.<\/p>\n<p>The state minimum requirements for Tennessee are:<\/p>\n                <\/div>\n                        \n                            <div class=\"c-sections__list-column \">\n                    <ul>\n<li>Bodily Injury Coverage per Person: $25,000<\/li>\n<li>Bodily Injury Coverage per Accident: $50,000<\/li>\n<li>Property Damage Per Accident: $25,000<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>All registered drivers in Tennessee need to show proof of insurance &#8211; no exceptions. If insurance lapses for a day, you may be subject to penalties.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">What Factors Does Tennessee Law Allow in Determining Your Premiums?<\/h3>\n<p>Several factors go into determining your auto insurance rate. Generally, those with zero claims on their record with an account in good standing over several years pay less in auto insurance premiums than someone with one or more claims on their record.<\/p>\n<p>Some factors used in determining your auto insurance premiums include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Driving record and claims history<\/li>\n<li>Your zip code and address<\/li>\n<li>Gender<\/li>\n<li>Marital status<\/li>\n<li>Age<\/li>\n<li>Type of vehicle<\/li>\n<li>Credit score<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Luckily, there are many ways to save on auto insurance, including purchasing an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.freeway.com\/knowledge-center\/auto\/cheap-vehicles-to-insure\/\">older vehicle<\/a>, asking for discounts, increasing deductibles, and lowering coverage limits.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">Am I Required to Report an Accident in Tennessee to Authorities?<\/h3>\n<p>Any accident that results in death, serious injury, or property damage exceeding $50. Although drivers have 20 days from the crash to report an accident to the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security, it is highly advised to report the incident immediately. Remember, it is also required by the insurance company.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s a pretty low bar, so you should report any accident. You can lose your driver\u2019s license if you are convicted of failure to report an accident. Take plenty of photos in case the other party disputes your claims.<\/p>\n<p>To report a crash, simply call <a href=\"tel:911\" target=\"_blank\">911<\/a>. A police officer will arrive, conduct interviews with all affected parties, and write up a crash report with all details of the incident.<\/p>\n                <\/div>\n                                    \n            \n            \n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<div class=\"c-quick-small js-quick-quote c-quick-office\">\n    <div class=\"c-quick-small__wrapper\">\n        <div class=\"c-quick-small__content\">\n                                                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.freeway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/office-quote.svg\" alt=\"Image office\" class=\"c-quick-small__img\">\n                                \n                <h2 class=\"c-quick-small__title c-quick-small__title--blue\">Find an office near you to help with your auto insurance<\/h2>\n                    <\/div>\n        \n                    <form class=\"form c-quick-small-form\" action=\"https:\/\/cerebro.confiedev.com\/\">\n                    <div class=\"c-quick-small-form__item\">\n                <label class=\"c-quick-small-form__label\" for=\"zipcodeQuote\">Search by Zip Code, City or State<\/label>\n                <input class=\"c-quick-small-form__input zipcodeQuickQuote \" type=\"text\"  name=\"search\" id=\"address\" maxlength=\"50\" autocomplete=\"on\">\n                \n            <\/div>\n            <div class=\"c-quick-small-form__controls\">\n                                    <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"latitude\" value=\"\">\n                    <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"longitude\" value=\"\">\n                    <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"radio\" value=\"20\">\n                    <input type=\"hidden\" name=\"time\" value=\"open-any\">\n                    <button class=\"c-quick-small-form__submit c-button c-button--blue-green c-button--text-big\" type=\"submit\">Find<\/button>\n                            <\/div>\n        <\/form>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<section class=\"c-section c-section--bottom-0-spacing \" id=\"default-block_61d31867bdfbe\">\n    <div class=\"o-wrapper \">\n        \n                                    <h2 class=\"c-section__title\">What Is Driving Like in Tennessee?<\/h2>\n                                    <div class=\"c-section__content c-section__content--small-top-margin\">\n                                            <div class=\"s-cms-content\">\n                    <h3 style=\"text-align: left;\">How Many Car Accidents Happen in Tennessee?<\/h3>\n<p>According to the Tennessee Department of Safety and Homeland Security, there were 1,217 traffic fatalities in Tennessee in 2020.

Remember, though, your deductible amount is what you will pay for any bills before your insurance kicks in and starts paying. For example, if there is $2,500 in bills and damages and your deductible is $2,000, you will be responsible for paying that $2,000 before your insurance company picks up the $500 that is left. Since the insurance company is on the line for a smaller amount, you will pay less every month. Just make sure you can afford to pay that deductible if and when it becomes necessary.<\/p>\n<p>Other ways low-income drivers can save money is by purchasing an older make and model vehicle that costs less to insure. If you can swing paying your entire annual premium upfront, you can most likely get a discount.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, low-income drivers may be eligible for discounts provided their account is in good standing. There are many discounts available, rewarding drivers for everything from owning an electric\/hybrid vehicle to being accident-free for seven years.<\/p>\n                                                                <\/div>\n                                                            <\/div>                                                        \n                                                        <\/div>\n                                                    <\/div>\n                                                <\/div>\n                                                                                                <div class=\"c-faqs-page-accordion__item\">\n                                                    <div itemscope itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\">\n                                                        <div class=\"c-faqs-page-accordion__title\" aria-expanded=\"true\">\n                                                            <span class=\"o-icon c-faqs-page-accordion__icon\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" role=\"img\"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/www.freeway.com\/wp-content\/themes\/freewayv2\/template\/html\/images\/icons\/icons.svg#icon-questions\"><\/use><\/svg><\/span>\n                                                             <h4>Can an Undocumented Worker Get Car Insurance in Tennessee?<\/h4>\n                                                        <\/div>\n                                                        <div class=\"c-faqs-page-accordion__content\">\n                                                            <div itemscope itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\">\n                                                                <div itemprop=\"text\">\n                                                                    <p>Tennessee does not allow undocumented workers to obtain a driver&#8217;s license, so some companies will not issue them insurance.
