Car Insurance Day

Car Insurance Day is celebrated on February 1 of every year. Car Insurance Day is a day to encourage responsible and safe driving with your family members and friends. If you take some time at least once in a year to glance at your insurance policy you can forget about it happily the rest of the year. Car Insurance Day is observed every year to take your documents out and review them. Make sure that your documents are up to date and full of all the needed coverage.

“When you’re setting up a budget, a general rule is to start with your fixed expenses – your housing and insurance payments, and car payment, if you own one.” – Jean Chatzky.

History of Car Insurance Day

The origin and history of Car Insurance Day are not known. Car insurance has been there everywhere nearly as long as cars themselves. When cars were produced in the late nineteenth to early twentieth centuries, car accidents automatically followed. Due to that, Massachusetts and Connecticut requested car drivers to have financial responsibility insurance which is a predecessor to the car insurance we know nowadays. Massachusetts was the 1st state to order mandatory or compulsory insurance for cars. On this day, examine the dates on it to confirm that you are still covered. Your situations may have altered through the year, so maybe the amount you pay now may not be the best price you can get. So take a little time once a year to check your policy.
