First, what is a 5% savings when a Brooklyn/Queens resident pays $4,000 annually for an auto premium--BS, that what is is. The acting fool had the nerve to say that this equates to a $15 million saving for NY (playing with number-stat. 101).

Please do be fooled by Mr. Mill's comment regarding combating auto fraud. Auto fraud and tort litigation is not what is padding New Yorkers premiums. What is in fact padding NY premiums is the system of greed and deceit.

The numbers are clear..premiums have shot through the roof and NY carriers are making a killing! I am not lame, fraud is a problem in NY but so is it in numerous other states across the country. The difference is that the regulation are much stricter and carrier are not given a free pass to abuse the market.

5% is a drop in the bucket. This is an insult to any logical person. NY rates are out of control. Fraud is DOWN. Fire and theft, DOWN. Claims payout,DOWN.
PREMIUMS way UP!

I am well aware we live in democratic and capitalistic society. I am well are that stock carriers and other carrier are in the business to make a buck. I just don't appreciate the propaganda that is constantly being used to justify price increases. Don't blame the trial lawyer, fraud ring, or the medical provider for your rates.

Please wake me up when they announce a 30-50% rate reduction--which will never happen of course.
