Average teen car insurance costs in North Dakota

On average, insuring a teen driver in North Dakota costs $5,476 per year for a policy with 100/300/100 coverage limits – that’s $100,000 for one person injured in an accident, $300,000 for all injuries in a single accident, and $100,000 for property damage – plus $500 deductibles for collision and comprehensive.

Because teens are new to the road, insurers view them as higher risk, which makes their premiums much steeper than those of adults.

Your rate may also change based on the coverage you select, the type of car your teen drives, and where you live. Families in North Dakota can save money by asking about good student discounts, signing up teens for a driving course, or adding them to an existing family policy.

Premiums drop as teens gain experience. For example, a 16-year-old in North Dakota with full coverage pays an average of $7,032 per year. By 19, the average rate is $3,883.

Though still higher than adult premiums, the steady decline shows how added years of driving lead to more affordable coverage.

Average teen car insurance costs in North Dakota, by gender

In most states, car insurance rates differ by gender, though California, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Michigan, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania prohibit the practice. In North Dakota, a 16-year-old male pays about $7,781 per year, compared to $6,310 for a female of the same age – a difference of $1,471.

According to the most recent data from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, a total of 3,048 teenagers ages 13-19 lost their lives in motor vehicle crashes in 2023, with two of every three teenagers who died in crashes in 2023 being males.

These crash trends help explain why teen boys usually face higher insurance costs than girls. Because young men are more likely to be in serious accidents, insurers factor that added risk into their rates.

Minimum coverage requirements for teens in North Dakota

In North Dakota, teen drivers must meet the same minimum liability requirements as adults:

  • $25,000 for bodily injury liability per person
  • $50,000 for bodily injury liability per accident
  • $25,000 for property damage liability

These limits are designed as a baseline, but they may not be enough to cover serious accidents. Many families choose higher limits for more protection when adding a teen driver.

If the car is financed or leased, comprehensive and collision coverage are also required. These cover damage to your own car from accidents, theft, or weather.

Smart ways to save on car insurance for your teen

There’s no avoiding the fact that insuring a teen driver costs more, but you can take steps to manage the expense while keeping them safe on the road:

  • Check state averages. Knowing what families typically pay in your state gives you a ballpark figure to budget and compare against quotes.
  • Choose the right car. A safe, reliable sedan is far cheaper to insure than a luxury or sports car.
  • Consider full coverage. Liability is cheaper, but full coverage offers better protection against accidents, injuries, and costly repairs.
  • Ask about discounts. Many insurers reward good grades, defensive driving courses, or low mileage with lower rates.
  • Talk with your teen. Driving isn’t just freedom – it’s responsibility. Open conversations about risks and safety can encourage habits that save lives.
  • Review your rates each year. Premiums usually drop as your teen gains experience and keeps a clean record, so it’s worth checking annually.

Giving your teen a safe start on the road

Adding a teen driver to your policy will raise costs at first, but rates typically decline as they gain experience.

You can keep expenses under control by comparing quotes, bundling policies, and taking advantage of discounts. More importantly, the right coverage helps your teen build confidence and keeps your family financially protected as they start driving.
