RE: If You Had To Switch Insurance In Kentucky, Who Would You Trust?
Honestly, the “pleasure use” thing is wild. I once had to send in a selfie with my car at a car show just to prove I wasn’t running errands. The hoops are real. And yeah, local agents in Kentucky do seem to have some pul...
RE: What happens if your rideshare app is between trips and you get into an accident?
The insurance “periods” are honestly a headache. Period 1 is that weird grey zone - app’s on, but you haven’t accepted a ride yet. The coverage is usually way less during that time, which is kind of nerve-wracking if you...
RE: Classic car insurance and the annual mileage cap - worth it?
That’s pretty spot-on - insurers really just want to see that you’re not “treating the classic like a daily driver.” I’ve had policies with mileage caps and never once had anyone ask for proof unless I was way over. As l...
RE: Letting friends drive your car in MN: better to add them or rely on permissive use?

RE: Do you really need extra insurance for a rental in Montana?
Yeah, I hear you on that - Montana roads are no joke, especially once the snow hits. I’ve had my fair share of close calls, and honestly, even being super careful doesn’t always cut it. The thing with rental coverage is,...
RE: is accident forgiveness really worth it in Ohio?
I hear you on the Ohio winters - last year I slid into a curb and my rates jumped almost $400 a year. I used to think accident forgiveness was just a gimmick, but after that incident, I started seeing it as more of a sa...
RE: Deductibles and premiums - what's the real deal?
I get where you’re coming from - if your driving is pretty uneventful, a higher deductible can make a lot of sense. I’m in the opposite boat, though. My commute’s a mess, and I’ve had my share of fender benders over the ...
