How much does insurance go up after getting a new car and having a recent DUI (3 months ago) on record?

DUI was reduced to a Wet Reckless lesser or included DUI. Please give me an estimate. I live in CA and in the 90066 area code. ...

    autoinsurance.noneto.com – check these plans. As I know their rates for bad driving record is not such expensive as from other companies.

    Without more information, its difficult to give specifics. Your insurance rates are obviously going to increase due to 2 seperate issues: 1) the new vehicle and 2) the wreckless driving (DUI charge).
    1) Your rates will go up for your Collision and Comprehesive coverages depending on the actual cash value of your new vehicle (meaning only part of your coverages will get more expensive…your liability coverages like Property Damage and Bodily Injury should have the same rate). Obviously the more expensive your new car, the more your rates will increase. If your old car was worth $2,000 and your new car is worth $30,000, brace yourself. If your old car was $10,000 and the new one is $15,000, you shouldn’t see much of an increase.
    2) There’s a significant difference in insurance rating from DUI and wreckless driving. If you can get the DUI off your record, it will be much better. Your insurance rate is currently based on your driving history and usually places you into 1 of several different tiers in an insurance company. If you barely made it into your current tier, the wreckless charge could easily drop you several tiers. If you were just shy of making it into a higher tier, its slightly possible you could stay in the same tier and have the same rates (not likely though).
    SHORT STORY: Try to go to court/driving school to get adjutication withheld or the points off your record. This is the best case. If not, I’m guessing between the 2 changes your rate will likely go up about 50%.
    Good luck. (6 years insurance agent)

    It’s not a percentage, and no one even at your company can answer this question.
    Every company does the math differently, giving different weights to different factors, which then go into an elaborate formula specific to that company.
    This math is recalculated at each renewal.
    You might want to shop around a bit, some companies are more favorable for your new situation than others.
