What to consider before canceling your policy

- Value: Paying less at a different company may not cover all your needs.
- New provider: Most U.S. states require that you have a new policy in place before you sever your current policy. Fines for gaps between insurance policies may cause you to receive fines, possible high premiums on future policies, or suspension of your driver’s license.
