How do I get out-of-state car insurance if I'm a college student?
I'm attending college at the University of Idaho in the fall, and I live in Montana. I'm taking my car with me, but I'm not sure if I need to change my car insurance policy—I'm still living in Montana, so is there any way I can keep my out-of-state car insurance?
