An insurance premium derives from a "rate". In turn, the rate derives from a number of factors allowed by state insurance regulators. The premium is the rate multiplied by the number of dollars worth of insurance involved (usually expressed in hundreds)

Some of the factors involved in determining the rate, and hence, the premium, include the driver(s) age(s), the make and model of the vehicle, the location where the vehicle is principally garaged (sometimes, drilled down to specific zip code areas). the average number of miles driven, whether the vehicle is used primarily for personal or commercial purposes, and driving history of the driver(s). There may or may not be others depending upon the law of the state in which the policy is issued.

Is there a charge by a lien holder if you do not have insurance on the vehicle?

Of course. The financing agreement that you signed requires you to have full coverage insurance and to make sure that they receive a copy of the insurance with their name listed as leinholder on the policy. This assures that they are paid if there is an accident and that they are notified in case of a cancellation of the insurance. There are laws protecting the leinholder in every state. If you break the contract with the leinholder they have the right to repossess the vehicle as well as the put what is called forced place insurance on the vehicle. This insurance protect the leinholder's interest only in case of an accident or damage to the vehicle. This coverage is physical damage coverage only and does not include liability or any other coverages and the premium is very high. The premium is charged to your loan account.
