No matter where you drive, car insurance is mandatory in the UK, meaning it’s a necessary cost to consider when budgeting each month.
Fortunately, the city of Glasgow is roughly on par with the rest of the UK when it comes to insurance premiums – the average rate is £680, which is only slightly more expensive than the national average £640. Meanwhile, car insurance in nearby North Lanarkshire is generally slightly cheaper, with average premiums costing £568.
If your car insurance premium is coming in a little more than expected, consider these simple ways to reduce how much you pay:
Increasing your excess: when you make an insurance claim, your provider will cover the cost of car repairs and replacement parts up to a certain amount. The remaining value you’re required to pay is called your excess. By voluntarily increasing your excess, you can reduce the monthly cost of your car insurance.
Reduce your annual mileage: the rate you have to pay each month for insurance is based on the likelihood of you being involved in a car accident and having to make a claim for damages. The assumption is that the more time you spend driving, the likelier you are to experience an accident. On the flip side, reducing your mileage can be a great way to lower your premium.
Build up your no claims discount: if you don’t have a history of claiming on your insurance, you’re rewarded by something called a ‘no claims discount’. Typically, each year you go without claiming, you’ll acrue one year’s no worth, with the discount increasing with every additional year.

While congestion is common in most cities across the UK, Glasgow is renowned for its slow traffic – especially during peak travel times. In fact, the city is home to three of Scotland’s most congested roads (M8 Glasgow, A82 Great Western Road, and the M74 Northbound).
With this in mind, it can be helpful to familiarise yourself with the city before driving in, including the streets that are strictly one way – namely Buchanan Street and Argyle Street. Other things to consider when driving in Glasgow include:
