Why Illinois Drivers Choose Illinois Drivers Insurance
Auto insurance is not “one size fits all.” Your price and options can change based on factors such as your:
Driving history (tickets, accidents, claims)
ZIP code and local claim trends
Vehicle type, safety features, and repair costs
Annual mileage and commute
Coverage limits and deductibles
Prior insurance and any lapse in coverage
Traffic volume in your area
Location (urban vs. rural)
These factors can affect your insurance premiums and cause rates to vary significantly from one driver to another. Driving behavior, driving history, vehicle type, location, age, household driving information, and credit history are all important factors that affect auto insurance premiums in Illinois. Drivers in metropolitan areas like Chicago often face higher insurance rates due to increased risks of accidents and theft. It’s important to determine which coverage options and providers best fit your unique situation.
That’s why we focus on comparison and clarity. Instead of pushing a single policy, we help you review real options and understand what you’re buying—so you can choose coverage that fits your situation and budget.
Auto Insurance Solutions for Real Illinois Life
Cheap Auto Insurance in Illinois (done correctly)
Everyone wants the cheapest car insurance, but “cheap” should still mean you’re properly covered and legally insured. We help you find low-cost options while making sure your policy meets Illinois requirements and matches your needs.
Many drivers are eligible for available discounts, such as good driver, good student, and multi-car discounts. For example, Illinois drivers who maintain a ‘B’ average or better may qualify for a good student discount. Switching insurance providers can also result in significant savings, with some companies offering discounts for new customers.
The average annual cost of full coverage in Illinois is about $2,126, while minimum coverage averages around $599. In 2024, the average cost of car insurance in Illinois was $1,982, which is 9% lower than the national average. Keep in mind, higher premiums may apply to drivers with riskier profiles, such as those with a history of accidents or living in urban areas.
SR-22 Insurance in Illinois
If the court or the Illinois Secretary of State requires an SR-22 filing, we can help you get compliant quickly. SR-22 is commonly required after:
An SR-22 may be required to reinstate your driving privileges if your license has been suspended or revoked for driving without auto insurance or due to a DUI in Illinois.
The process to obtain an SR-22 certificate in Illinois involves filing the SR-22 form with your insurance provider, who will then submit it to the state. Illinois Drivers Insurance can electronically file the SR-22 with the Illinois Secretary of State for you.
The cost of obtaining an SR-22 certificate can vary based on your insurance provider and your driving history. Please note that an SR-22 certificate is not an insurance policy but proof that you have the required insurance coverage.
We help you set up the right policy and ensure the SR-22 filing is handled correctly.
Non-Owner Car Insurance + Non-Owner SR-22
Don’t own a vehicle? No problem. Non-owner auto insurance provides liability coverage for individuals who do not own a vehicle. It is often required for those who frequently rent cars or borrow vehicles. Non-owner auto insurance typically covers bodily injury and property damage liability, but does not cover physical damage to a vehicle. In Illinois, non-owner auto insurance can help you meet state minimums when driving a borrowed or rented vehicle. It’s also a good option for those who do not drive frequently but still want to be covered in case of an accident. Non-owner auto insurance may be the right fit if you:
Need insurance for license reinstatement
Need an SR-22 but don’t own a car
Drive borrowed vehicles occasionally and need liability coverage
Discounts That Can Lower Your Rate
There are many available discounts for Illinois drivers insurance, and you may be eligible for several of them. Discount availability varies by carrier, but may include:
Safe driver discounts
Transfer/continuous coverage discounts
Multi-car discounts (for insuring multiple vehicles)
Defensive driving/defensive driving course discounts (especially for older drivers who complete an approved course)
Good student discounts (for young drivers maintaining a ‘B’ average or better)
Anti-theft and safety device discounts (for vehicles equipped with safety features)
Low annual mileage discounts (for drivers who drive fewer miles each year)
Paid-in-full discounts (when available)
Insurance bundling discounts (including with homeowners insurance or renters insurance)
Additional carrier-specific savings
Drivers with multiple vehicles or who bundle their auto and homeowners insurance may qualify for additional savings. Many insurance companies in Illinois also offer discounts for vehicles equipped with safety devices and for drivers with low annual mileage.
We look for every legitimate way to reduce your premium while keeping your coverage set up correctly.
Illinois Auto Insurance Requirements (State Minimum Coverage)
Illinois law requires all vehicle owners to have minimum amounts of auto liability insurance as part of their car insurance coverage. These required coverages include bodily injury liability and property damage liability. The minimum coverage limits for bodily injury liability in Illinois are $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident, while the minimum coverage limit for property damage liability is $20,000. Your policy must also include uninsured motorist coverage, and underinsured motorist coverage is required if you purchase higher limits of uninsured motorist coverage.
Illinois Minimum Liability Limits (25/50/20)
$25,000 bodily injury liability per person
$50,000 bodily injury liability per accident
$20,000 property damage liability per accident
Bodily injury liability helps pay for injuries to others if you cause an accident. Property damage liability helps pay for damage to another vehicle or property.
Uninsured Motorist Coverage (Required)
Illinois also requires uninsured motorist coverage to help protect you if you’re injured by a driver who doesn’t have insurance:
$25,000 per person
$50,000 per accident
State minimum coverage keeps you compliant, but many Illinois drivers choose higher limits for stronger protection.
