Met with my insurance agent Friday as my insurance also went up no claim in 37 years. Agent said the problem was the vehicles today cost more money to repair and some newer vehicles don’t even have parts available to repair them. Agent also said that over half of accidents are caused by drivers on cell phones. Agent also stated they pull cell phone records for all accident claims. The owner must agree to release the records before claim can begin. This is not over yet will continue to rise.
It’s a good thing there wasn’t a passenger..
Looking from the letter from my insurance company again this year and no, I am not paying for these drivers either. This has become an every day occurrence and will continue until the cars drive themselves. We can’t drive and read at the same time.
if you are going to have an accident in front of a fire station is a good place to have it cuts down on response time
Those concrete poles are notorious for jumpin’ right out in front of you!
Seriously, though. Glad there were no serious injuries. Hope the driver recovers fully and, if there were unknown reasons (like medical) that caused the accident they are taken care of soon.
