I welcome this opportunity. I work at an Ins Co and when I first heard about this, was wondering if the Legislators would allow them to get away with this type of blatant discrimination and redlining. I said to myself, here we go again, another way of "socking it" to the lower and middle class. What does a College degree, credit score, marital status etc have to do with driving record? Rates sh be based strictly on driving record, plain and simple ....and in a few cases where one lives can be considered since some areas are really high crime,theft etc.
Please do not allow them to get away with this. Thank you very much!!
