For car insurance the quickest way to get a low quote is do a auto policy comparison. Be sure to choose the same coverage amounts, you can get an fast quote to compare against others. Use the same zip code, auto make and model, mileage and driving history to make sure you get accurate comparison. To get mulitple auto insurance quotes, go to http://www.goodonlinedeals.com/Auto-Insurance.html and you can compare all the major auto insurance companies.

If the insurance companies charged higher premiums for young male drivers because "girl drivers are prettier", then that would be gender discrimination. But since the insurance industry has decades of actual statistics that prove young male drivers are involved in more collisions than young female drivers, it isn't sexist. It's based on fact. Nobody is forcing you to drive and purchase insurance coverage. If you don't like the rules, stay out of the game.

As Mark Twain once said there are three kinds of lies. Lies, damned lies and statistics. And there are no laws to keep them from using statistics, which can be slanted most anyway the people gathering them wants.

Its not sexism or racism. Its based on facts. In the case of insurance its a fact that males wreck more cars. They are typically more aggressive drivers. Same goes for higher rates for teens and old people because they really do wreck more cars.
