Re: insurance bitching thread

I'll have to agree with Brian on that one. When it's premium time, they're knocking at your door, but when it's time to collect, it's a bitch. I speak from experience, twice. They're are so many clauses too. Make sure you know exactly whats being covered when you take out the policy. My car is actually under my parents business. Because i'm a board member, i was able to do this. Saved me quite a bit.

I'm not promoting everyone in Wisconsin to yank their car insurance. But "NO" Wisconsin does require auto insurance. I just checked as stated below. Not related to the topic but i don't think people should have to wear seat belts either. About 10 years ago, had my brother been wearing his seatbelt, he'd probably been not here today by being in an auto accident not reliable for that he was a passenger in. Smucked broadside in which it put the passenger seat 1/2 way underneath the driver seat. If everyone should have to wear seatbelts, then everyone motorcycle driver should have to wear a helmet. I'm just pointing out that people shouldn't be able to tell us what to do in some cases. Most of these agencies that set up these mandates are just places created to give people jobs.

--- A quote off another website ---

As Wisconsin law does not require everyone to have insurance, the legislature has mandated that every insurance policy which is sold in Wisconsin include protection against accidents caused by uninsured motorists. Such coverage is called "uninsured motorist coverage". Wisconsin law mandates that such insurance must be for a minimum of $25,000 and tragically many insurance agents, even when the people have bought larger liability policies, sell the minimum amount.
