Lowering Car Insurance Rates: Mileage Adjustment

The number of miles you drive each year can affect your auto insurance rates. The more you drive, the more likely you are to be involved in an accident, which increases your insurance rates. On the other hand, people who drive fewer miles than average may be eligible for lower rates on their auto insurance. GEICO customers can change their miles driven per year by logging into their online account, editing their vehicle coverage, and changing their address slightly, which will trigger GEICO to let them change their yearly mileage.
