at $500 a month i’ll laugh in the cops face at the $5000 fine when i have no insurance to show.

insurance companies dont deserve the premiums considering that the service is so $hit. they’ll do everything to avoid paying premiums.[/quote]

my college studies cases and have had many visits to traffic court to do sit ins… and let me tell you by law the minimum for first time offenders is $5000 after that its $10000 but guess what?

The Justice almost never gives the full amount they are the most reasonable people you could met, take the guilty plea IN FRONT of him (dont waste his or the courts time) and stress that your having finacial difficulties (struggling student, kids, whatever) any you’ll be paying in the $2000 range maybe less, and they even give you the option to pay a certain amount monthly if you ask the justice.

Not incouraging anyone to drive without insurance, just sharing my knowledge in this area.

I cant believe how many people are paying $400+!!! Thats blowing my mind right now.

Anyway, I pay $160/mo for full coverage and lowest deductable. I’m 22, still have my G2 - clean record.

For minimum coverage I was quoted $115/mo. This is all for my '93 S13 btw.

I don’t get it, I thought I was getting raped and it looks like my rates are pretty good in comparison.

Oh, this is with State Farm and I’m the Primary (and only) Driver.

Actually, I just added another car to my policy (winter beater) so it probably went down even more… i’ll need to check.

For those of you getting owned by insurance, try looking for a company that does group rates.

i.e. The Personal, Meloche Monnex. The group rates are for various groups. You can look online with Meloche to see if you part of the group.

I’m with Meloche Monnex. through U of T alumni.

Over 25.  
I’m paying $124 a month for everything.

I used to pay out of the ass, in '99, I was 21 and paying $390 per month on my zenki s14 (that is $4680/year)

Now:

27 years old  
Full coverage  
6 star driver  
multicar discount (winter beater)  
Drivers ed discount (still heh)  
Non daily driver (have company vehicle)

$109/month or 1300/year  
My winter beater is $37 a month (with only Liab, fire, theft) and now that the 240 is off the road, it costs me $10 a month for fire and theft.

I am with State Farm, they are GREAT! My broker calls me up whenever there is a deal to be had. (She should, between my parents and I, we have over 10 cars currently registered).

So, she calls me up one day and says: “Theo, we have a deal that can reduce your insurance by 15%. Since you already have your car and house insurance with us, if you make it 3 different types of insurance, you get teh discount. So, if you take out a life insurance plan with us, even for the minimum of $25G coverage, you will save 15% on all of your insurance policies only costing you $7 a month.”

I said ok, and thanks. Plus, when I have an accident (total loss twice that they know of) I walk in there and they take care of me 100%! They have a rental car dropped off for me while I am filling out the papersand so on and so forth.

It’s all about the broker.

Of coarse I still think they are a rip off, but don’t have the strongest case for this.
