How does your driving experience affect auto insurance rates?

Proof of driving experience for insurance isn't mandatory, but the more driving experience you have the lower your auto insurance rates likely will be. Driving experience for auto insurance rates also depends on how many years you've been licensed for, but being older isn't always better. Drivers under the age of 25 and over the age of 65 pay more for car insurance regardless of driver experience.
