Auto Insurance Secrets

As the unemployment rate increases and the state of the economy continues, more and more people are expected to drop their auto insurance.  This is according to the article “More Motorists Expected To Drive Without an Auto Insurance Policy” by John Pirro found on live-pr.com. 

The article states that many people see a strong correlation between unemployment rates and the number of people driving without auto insurance.  According to a study from the Insurance Research Council, about one in six drivers will be driving without auto insurance by 2010.  One of the main problems with this trend is that responsible drivers who follow the law and carry the proper auto insurance coverage end up paying more to account for accidents caused by uninsured motorists. 

The consequences for driving without auto insurance are getting harsher.  For example, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation will suspend a driver’s vehicle registration if they are caught without proof of insurance.  Many of these people driving around uninsured believe they simply cannot afford the month to month cost of carrying auto insurance, but the truth is that it can end up costing you a lot more money in the long run if you are in an accident or caught driving uninsured.
