Mercury Insurance Review
Overview
Founded in California in 1962, Mercury Insurance provides options ranging from personal auto insurance to homeowners insurance to mechanical breakdown protection. Today Mercury has more than 8,500 independent local agents and is among the leading insurers in California.
Mercury offers all of the basics of car insurance and aims to be a low-cost option. Among the ways to save is RealDrive, Mercury’s usage-based program that earns drivers a discount for displaying good driving habits.
