Auto insurance rates keep going up, but shopping for quotes without knowing your current coverage is the easiest way to get tricked into a bad deal. In this episode of CleverDime, we break down exactly what you need to prepare before talking to an agent or pulling quotes online.

We’re walking through the ultimate auto insurance "cheat sheet" - your declarations page. Learn how to quickly identify your liability limits, deductibles, personal injury protection (PIP), and comprehensive vs. collision coverage. Don't fall for the trap where a company lowers your premium by secretly slashing your coverage. Arm yourself with the right information to get true apples-to-apples quotes, maximize your discounts, and keep more of your money where it belongs: in your investment accounts.
