How do I get auto insurance without getting my parent involved?

I got my license in June and i turned 18 last week.
My dad is trying to find a cheap auto insurance plan but the cheapest one he claimed to find was $6,000/6 months and he?s not willing to pay that.
I?m thinking of getting a part-time job at my college but idk how the process of getting insurance works out.

if you have money you simply buy the insurance yourself
