You can expect to pay more for car insurance if you are a teenager or have had a moving violation. These factors both increase the risk of insuring you, and your insurer will charge a higher premium to cover that risk.
Finally, it’s worth noting that the amount of coverage you should have depends on your state’s minimum requirements as well as your personal finances. In general, you need at least the minimum coverage required by your state, and you should get as much extra coverage as you can afford.
