If you have bad credit, thin credit, or no credit history at all, you may have heard horror stories about it doubling your car insurance — and in most states that's true. But California is different. If you live in Sacramento, a low credit score legally cannot raise your auto premium, because state law forbids insurers from using credit when they price personal auto coverage. So when you call Auto World Insurance for a quote, we don't run a credit check to rate you, and a rough credit past won't be held against you. Sacramento drivers already deal with highway-heavy commuting across I-5, I-80, and US-50; your credit report shouldn't be one more thing on the pile.
Sacramento & Sacramento County
The protection comes from Proposition 103, the 1988 voter-approved law that still governs how auto rates are set in California. Under Prop 103, the three mandatory rating factors an insurer must weigh most heavily are your driving safety record, the number of miles you drive each year, and your years of driving experience — not your FICO score. Credit-based insurance scoring, which is standard across much of the country, simply is not allowed for California auto policies. That's the honest, specific reason a bad-credit driver in Sacramento County often pays the same as a neighbor with perfect credit. What still affects your price are the legitimate driving factors: tickets, at-fault accidents, the vehicle you drive, your ZIP code, your annual mileage, and the coverage limits you choose. Auto World is a brokerage, so we run your profile through several California carriers at once and place you with the one that prices your real driving record best — no credit pull involved.
Coverage
Because credit isn't part of the equation, every coverage level is available to you on the same terms as anyone else: Liability at California's state-minimum limits, Standard coverage, and Full Coverage (comprehensive plus collision). We write policies for drivers rebuilding after a rough financial stretch, young drivers with no credit file yet, and newer California residents who haven't built U.S. credit at all — and we accept an ITIN, Matricula Consular, or AB-60 license, so no Social Security number is needed to quote or buy. Average annual premiums in Sacramento County run around $1640 for a standard profile, and the figure is driven by your driving history and the vehicle, never your credit. You can also split the premium into monthly payments instead of paying the full term up front.
