RE: Mileage-based car insurance: who’s using it and which company do you like?

That’s spot on for most policies. Just to clarify, here’s how it usually breaks down: - Sudden battery failure from normal use? Not covered by standard auto insurance. - If the battery’s damaged in a crash, fire, flood,...
RE: What happens if your rideshare app is between trips and you get into an accident?
Title: What happens if your rideshare app is between trips and you get into an accident? Honestly, I’d push back a bit on the idea that it’s all just about “getting it in writing.” Even with everything spelled out, th...
RE: is accident forgiveness really worth it in Ohio?
Honestly, you nailed it - accident forgiveness is more of a soft landing than a magic shield. Here’s the thing: - It usually covers your *first* at-fault accident, but only for rate hikes right after. - Some companie...
