Assigned Risk Program:

If you do not meet our underwriting requirements, please call our agency at 1-888-GLACIER, and ask an agent to help you make an application to the Pennsylvania Assigned Risk Plan. In order for your agent to offer you an assigned risk plan policy, he or she must be certified by the Plan.
Within the Assigned Risk Plan, you may qualify for the clean risk rate. The clean risk rates are lower than the regular assigned risk rates. You may qualify for the Assigned Risk Plan’s clean risk rate if within the preceding 36 months all licensed drivers in the household:

  • have had no accidents other than those in which your auto insurance company paid no more than $1150 for any claims on your behalf.
  • have received no more than three traffic violation points.
  • have had no suspension or revocation of an operator’s license.
  • the named insured (the person(s) listed on the policy) has been a licensed operator for three years.
