Claim frequency within a region majorly impacts car insurance premiums. In Ontario, insurance companies use forward sortation areas (FSA), the first three characters in your postal code, to set boundaries for coverage areas. The fewer claims in an FSA, the lower the average rate and vice versa.
Some individual characteristics determine your rates, including age, gender, car, driving and insurance histories. This means scoring a rate lower than your city’s average is possible.

You can save up to 15% (sometimes 20%) on each policy if you buy home and auto coverage from the same insurer. Apart from comparing quotes, it's the best way to shave off hundreds on your insurance bill immediately. Select the bundling option when completing your home or auto quote to unlock these savings when you compare quotes on InsuranceHotline.com.
In addition to bundling home and auto, insuring all the cars in your household (if there are multiple) with the same company will also lead to savings. You could save 10 to 20% when you insure all your vehicles under the same policy.

A telematics device is installed in your car and lets an insurance company monitor your driving habits. Insurance companies have different names for it, like CAA's Connect® or belairdirect's Automerit® program. Exhibiting good driving habits can reduce your insurance bill by 25% at renewal. Standards vary by insurer, but generally, good habits mean driving at the speed limit, braking slowly, and not driving at night.
