We’ve broken down the rates for each driver and coverage type in the sections below.
Georgia requires all drivers to have liability insurance to drive legally. A liability-only policy includes bodily injury and property damage coverage that protects other drivers and their vehicles if you cause an accident. But while liability insurance offers some protection, many insurance experts recommend buying more coverage to protect yourself and your vehicle after a crash.
The chart below shows the five cheapest companies for state-minimum coverage, according to our research.
Full-coverage car insurance comes with a higher price tag but also gives you more protection. In addition to liability insurance, full-coverage policies typically include collision and comprehensive insurance.
Collision coverage pays for damages to your car if another driver hits you. Comprehensive coverage pays for damages due to events outside your control, like vandalism or severe weather. Lenders and leasing companies usually require you to buy full-coverage car insurance if you finance or lease your car.
Drivers in Augusta pay an average of $232 per month for full-coverage insurance.
Take a look at the five cheapest full-coverage insurers in the chart below, according to Compare.com data.
Teen drivers pay the highest car insurance rates of any age group in Augusta. That’s because teenagers’ inexperience on the road makes them riskier to insure. Teens are four times more likely to get into accidents than drivers age 20 and older, according to the Insurance Institute of Highway Safety (IIHS).[2]
The five insurers in the chart below offer the most affordable coverage for teenage drivers in Augusta, according to Compare.com data.
Unlike teens, senior drivers tend to pay the lowest car insurance rates of any age group. Senior drivers generally drive fewer miles and avoid driving at night, making them less risky to insure, according to the IIHS.[3]
Augusta seniors pay an average of $171 per month for car insurance. But several companies may offer lower-than-average rates.
The chart below shows the five cheapest auto insurers for Augusta seniors, according to Compare.com data.
Augusta drivers with less-than-perfect driving records typically pay more for car insurance than drivers with clean records. Speeding tickets are one of the most common infractions that can hike your auto insurance costs.
Our research shows that a single speeding ticket increases average car insurance rates by 37% nationwide. Augusta drivers with a recent ticket pay an average of $237 per month for car insurance.
But some insurers may offer lower-than-average rates. The chart below shows the five cheapest insurers in Augusta for drivers with a recent ticket, according to Compare.com data.
Like speeding tickets, at-fault accidents can increase your car insurance costs. That’s because your insurance company may consider you a high-risk driver if you cause a crash that leads to an expensive claim. Our research shows that a single at-fault accident causes insurance rates to increase by 41% nationwide.
In Augusta, drivers with a recent at-fault accident pay an average of $259 per month for car insurance. That said, some insurers may offer more affordable premiums.

The chart below shows the five cheapest Augusta insurers for drivers with DUIs, according to Compare.com data.
Some states, including Georgia, allow car insurance companies to use your credit history to help determine your premium. While insurance companies can’t refuse to insure you based on your credit, a poor credit history could mean higher rates.
Our research shows that drivers with poor credit pay 20% more for car insurance than drivers with excellent credit.
Augusta drivers with poor credit pay an average of $243 per month for car insurance. But not all insurance companies look at your credit, and some offer cheap rates regardless of your credit history.

Like nearly every U.S. state, Georgia requires drivers to have car insurance. To legally drive in the Peach State, you need the following coverage:
$25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident of bodily injury liability insurance
$25,000 per accident of property damage liability insurance
While Georgia doesn’t require drivers to have collision or comprehensive insurance, buying them can be a smart idea. That’s especially true if you finance or lease your car or drive a newer vehicle.
Experts typically recommend buying more than the state minimum car insurance coverage. For example, if you damage your car in a traffic accident, you could end up paying for repairs on your own without collision insurance. Lenders and leasing companies also typically require you to buy full coverage insurance to protect their investment.
