When I first bought insurance for my car at around age 20, I got some quotes and kept noticing weird descriptors added when the quotes showed my liability coverage options. For example, one insurer offered me 25/50 coverage, another one offered me 50/100, and yet another gave me a quote for 100/300 coverage.
It took some research to figure out that 100/300 refers to bodily injury liability coverage limits, and I don't think I'm alone in not understanding these numbers.

I didn't get my own car until I was 20. Since I was already at college (officially an "adult") and bought my car with my earnings from summer jobs, I wanted an insurance policy separate from my parents. Boy, was that a mistake because auto insurance can be expensive at that age.
Of course, at the time, I didn't know how to look for the cheapest car insurance for drivers in their 20s.

When you compare AAA to Travelers, AAA likely beats out this competitor due to potentially cheaper-than-average premiums and higher J.D. Power rankings for some regional clubs.

You'll also need a AAA membership to get roadside assistance or score the best deals on coverage, so you may prefer Travelers if you don't need a car club membership.
