We are currently in the process of purchasing a car and insuring the vehicle for 6 months while we are in the US.
The price is about $700 for six months ( No personal warranty for theft or personal negligence, only bodily injury ) so we are looking to reduce the cost a bit.
The period of stay will be 2 years from now and the vehicle is a 2010 Japanese car.

I would appreciate your advice on your recommended insurance companies, plans and costs.
I have been licensed in Japan for over 10 years, but I have no driving history in the US.

Thank you for your time.

I wonder if insurance will evaluate your Japanese driving history
and not your practical skills.

You have a mean streak too.

Don't goof around here and ask questions, call the DMV and ask.

I don't understand why I have to write and ask about other people
.

If insurance will take your Japanese driving record,
they will take your Japanese driving record when you take the practical test....

Even if there are exemptions in other countries, there are still paper drivers.
In Japan, the steering wheel is reversed and the examiner still has to check the practical skills.

> Japan is the opposite of a steering wheel

Yes. That is the scariest thing. A long time ago, when a Rumonkaku (留(游)student who was doing a homestay in Beverly Hills was driving the children of a family there to school, he turned a corner and got into the opposite lane and collided head-on with an oncoming car. Long before that story, when I had just arrived in the U.S. and had not yet obtained my driver's license, the branch manager allowed me to drive his car for practice. So I went around and around the same block in my neighborhood many times during my lunch break. In my mind, I was mumbling to myself, "Right is 'small turn'".

I don't know about now, but at that time in NYC, the practical exam was held at a designated spot in a busy residential area, and the candidates would gather there. The branch manager's car was a huge Chevy ・ Impala, and I had been driving a Honda N360, which had just been released in Japan, so it was hard to get used to the difference.
