Subject: Credit Scoring Ban
Insurance is something that you absolutely MUST have to be able to even have a legal automobile, therefore, I feel that it should be illegal to determine one's credit is the sole reason for a discount on auto insurance. I also believe that it is discrimination against those who don't have health insurance (as medical bills are the #1 reason most people have a low credit score), and that until the credit bureaus themselves can accurrately give credit scores, that don't differ by hundreds of points of each other, this use of pulling someone's credit for the purpose of a service, should be illegal for anything; not just automobile insurance.
