			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Insurance carriers are rolling out a new way of buying auto insurance in some states.</p>
<p>By placing a device in your vehicle which monitors your driving habits such as: how fast you drive, hard braking, mileage driven,etc, they will determine a new way of <strong>pricing auto insurance.</strong> Insurance carriers face many costs in writing auto insurance and a certain % of cost is related to administrative costs. Policy processing, billing, commissions or overhead.</p>
<p>The big news here is, your personal driving habits may determine your future costs of <strong>auto insurance</strong>.</p>
<p>This may save some money for some consumers, but I thnk it will raise the costs of auto insurance for many more.</p>
<p>Stay tuned</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Insurance companies have 2 ways to make money.  Through the premiums charged to consumers and businesses and also through the income made on reserves they have on hand to pay out catastrophic claims.</p>
<p>Reserves have declined for some carriers which will require them to raise insurance premiums to rebuild reserves.</p>
<p>Some analysts predict about a 10% increase in 2012.  Rates have declined for several years now and insurance companies will tighten up underwriting guidelines, get out of some lines of insurance and raise rates.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A recent article in the Deseret News revealed that every 35 minutes a Utah teen driver is involved in an automobile accident.</p>
<p>Teen also cause 4x as many fatal accidents.  Traffic accidents are the leading cause of death for youthful drivers.</p>
<p>Insurance companies use data to determine actual premiums.  Data showing that teens are involved in this many accidents causes higher premiums.</p>
<p>Auto insurance companies have given good student discountsfor many years  and have offered safe driving programs to educate teen drivers.</p>
<p><strong>Auto insurance</strong> <strong>companies</strong> have learned that the teens involved in these programs statistically did not fare much better than the other teens.  Many insurance companies have subsidized teen driving rates to appease parents.  What this means is that adults are typically paying a higher premium than necessary.</p>
<p>Auto Insurance premiums have many rate factors.  For a quote on your auto insurance please give our office a call @ 801.748.0500.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We have had continuous snowfall lasting over 24 hours.  On a day like this, there are many auto accidents.  This is where, &#8220;the rubber meets the road&#8221;, so to speak.  Consumers discover that <strong>the cheap auto insurance </strong>they switched to, didn&#8217;t provide enough coverage to meet their needs.  Stranded in below freezing temps, they realize they don&#8217;t have towing, rental car reimbursement or collision coverage to repair damage to their vehicle.</p>
<p>Cheap auto insurance typically, is just state minimum limits of liability. Many consumers or agents also remove uninsured motorist coverage which is crucial in a serious accident.  If you are seriously injured in an auto accident, the other driver may be uninsured.  Uninsured motorist coverage provides coverage for your medical bills.</p>
<p>Think twice before you choose cheap auto insurance.</p>
<p>Drive safely!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Insurance Web Corporation published a list of the 2010 least expensive vehicles to insure.  They pored over data submitted by policyholders to determine this list.</p>
<p>Kia Optima<br />
Kia Sedona<br />

Ford Escape<br />
Hyandai Sante Fe<br />
Mercury Mariner<br />
Chysler PT Cruiser<br />
Chevrolet Equinoz<br />
Suburu Outback<br />
Ford Explorer</p>
<p>Many people will look at this list and decide to purchase one of these vehicles. But, auto insurance has become increasingly more sophisticated in pricing.  Each vehicle may have 3 or 4 factors assigned to it to determine an auto insurance rate.  Then each driver and household have a number of factors assigned.  The composite of all these factors determines the final auto insurance rate.</p>

<p>Auto accident fatalities were more likely to be caused by young  drivers texting on their phones while driving.</p>
<p>Should there be laws passed banning the use of cell phones while driving?  </p>
<p>Should all drivers pay a higher price on their auto insurance because of the increase in accidents linked to cell phone use?</p>
