This option may cost more than having it through your car insurance company but it’s worth it in the event of an accident. Another way to lower rates is to keep detailed records of all accidents, including who was at fault. This will help prove if there has been an increase in accidents and therefore rates for UM coverage. Additionally, make sure you are driving defensively and avoid being involved in accidents where possible.
