The Problem

Why your premium keeps climbing
after seventy-five

Standard carriers apply automatic age tiers at renewal — no accident, no claims, no explanation. Here's what the fine print actually says.

65
Age 65+0%

Baseline — most carriers still competitive

70
Age 70+12%

First "senior surcharge" quietly added

72
Age 72+24%

Renewal letter arrives. No explanation.

75
Age 75+38%

Annual review triggers automatic re-tier

78
Age 78+52%

Same car. Same driver. Forty percent jump.

82
Age 82+67%

Standard carriers often decline to renew

Shield works differently

We price on how much you actually drive — not how old you are. A 78-year-old who drives 35 miles a week is statistically safer than a 45-year-old commuter. Our rates reflect that.

"After Harold passed, I had no idea what our insurance actually covered. The Shield advisor walked me through every line. My new rate is sixty-two dollars less than what State Farm was charging."

"I drive to the hardware store twice a week, maybe the pharmacy. That's it. Why should I pay the same as someone driving forty miles a day? Shield finally makes that argument for me."
