If your child&rsquo;s college is in a different state, you might wonder if you must buy a separate auto insurance policy for them. According to Smart Financial, most states will allow your college student to remain on your auto insurance policy, as long as they list your home address as their primary address. The same website reminds you your child should remain insured, so their insurance rate doesn&rsquo;t lapse.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>If your child is living in a dormitory, one question parents should ask is whether their child&rsquo;s college will allow them to keep&nbsp;<br \/>\ntheir own car on campus. There are special auto insurance policies available for people who don&rsquo;t own a car, and who typically only drive a car occasionally. Whether your college student drives your car when they visit you at home, or they drive a friend&rsquo;s car, while at college, that reduced-rate policy may be a good option for your college student.&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\nCall Us Today for Your Appointment&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t take a chance by driving without auto insurance.
