Safeco is one of the 30+ carriers Dragon Insurance compares for auto, home, and renters policies in Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, Maryland, Ohio, Tennessee, and Kentucky. This review covers Safeco's coverage options, RightTrack telematics discount, bundle savings, and how they compare to Progressive and Liberty Mutual so you can make an informed decision.
Safeco Strengths
Safeco Limitations
Safeco auto policies offer standard personal auto coverage with several optional add-ons. Coverage availability and pricing vary by state. Here is what a standard Safeco auto policy includes.
| Coverage | What It Covers | Standard or Optional |
|---|---|---|
| Liability | Bodily injury and property damage you cause others | Standard (required by law) |
| Collision | Damage to your car after a crash with another vehicle or object | Optional (required if financed) |
| Comprehensive | Theft, fire, vandalism, weather, hitting an animal | Optional (required if financed) |
| Uninsured Motorist | Injuries and damage caused by uninsured drivers | Optional (recommended) |
| Medical Payments / PIP | Your medical bills after an accident regardless of fault | Varies by state |
| Rental Reimbursement | Daily rental car cost while your car is being repaired | Optional add-on |
| Roadside Assistance | Towing, flat tire, lockout, fuel delivery | Optional add-on |
| Gap Coverage | Difference between your car's ACV and loan balance after total loss | Optional add-on |
| RightTrack (telematics) | Usage-based discount for safe driving habits | Optional enrollment |
Safeco home insurance is available as HO-3 (standard homeowners), HO-6 (condo), and HO-4 (renters). Their home policies include standard dwelling, personal property, liability, and additional living expense coverage. Bundling a Safeco home policy with your Safeco auto policy is the most common way clients reduce total cost.
Safeco home policies offer optional endorsements for water backup (sewer and drain), identity theft recovery, and higher limits on valuables like jewelry and electronics. For PA homeowners, Safeco is often competitive against other national home carriers depending on the property's age and roof condition, which is exactly why comparing it through an independent agent matters.
Dwelling Coverage
Rebuilds or repairs your home structure after covered perils including fire, wind, hail, and lightning.
Personal Property
Covers your belongings at home and worldwide. Replacement cost coverage available (vs. actual cash value).
Liability
Protects you if someone is injured on your property or you accidentally damage someone else's property.
Additional Living Expense
Pays hotel and extra living costs while your home is being repaired after a covered loss.
Water Backup (endorsement)
Covers damage from sewer backup or sump pump failure. Highly recommended and not included standard.
These three carriers are all in Dragon Insurance's network. Here is a direct comparison for the most common use cases we see in PA, TX, VA, and MD.

Safeco is a Liberty Mutual subsidiary but is sold as a separate brand with independent pricing. The two companies may quote different rates for the same risk profile.
RightTrack is Safeco's safe-driver discount program. It works like Progressive's Snapshot: you enroll, your driving is tracked for 90 days, and safe drivers earn a discount at renewal.
1
Enroll
Download the Safeco app or request a plug-in device from your agent. Enrollment typically provides an immediate participation discount in most states.
2
Drive
RightTrack monitors braking, acceleration, and late-night driving (midnight to 4am) for 90 days. Normal driving is not affected.
3
Score
After 90 days, your discount is calculated based on your driving score. Safe drivers typically earn 5 to 30 percent off.
4
Save
The discount applies at your next renewal and stays as long as you keep the policy. No ongoing monitoring after the initial period.

Progressive is typically stronger for high-risk drivers. Safeco is typically more competitive for clean-record drivers, homeowners bundling, and drivers who will do telematics. Your specific profile determines which wins. We compare both in one call.
Claims can be filed via the Safeco app, Safeco.com, or their 24/7 line. Safeco's claims reputation is generally positive for straightforward losses. If you need help starting a claim, call us at 717-229-5115.
