Will someone run for office and change the laws so people ((who don't live within walking distance to a bus stop and have lower income than the average)) won't have to pay anything for car insurance.

Well Massachusetts have tons of bad drivers and many of them can't even do speed limits and cause traffic. so yeah it sucks we have to pay for bad drivers
I live in Boston and have excellent driving record, My insurance was Geico for 10 years last month the double my premiums and they said cost of doing business is high, totally unfair rise in price. I am now in a different insurance and pay less money that I paid Geico for years. bye bye Geico.
I’ve been with Geico for over 10 years, my rate was $94.69 a month, a few years later I’m pay $140 a month with zero accidents. Greed!!! That’s it. Greed!!!!
My insurance has been ridiculously expensive all my life with a perfect driving record, I pay more than anyone I've ever met, yet no one can give me answers
@@ButcherBird-FW190D My credit score is in the 750s and I'm still over paying insurance for a 2017 Ram 1500. Don't think credit score has a lot to do with that.
@@Tylnorton You are entirely wrong. There is an exceptionally high correlation between your credit score and your driving history/propensity to incur an accident wherein costs will be passed on to the auto insurance company. Auto insurance companies have used credit scores in the pricing models for the past couple decades. Same drill for life insurance and other factors as well. All correlated, at least partially, to your credit score. As to auto insurance costs in general.... They are the highest category of increase amongst all of the individual sectors of the CPI market basket. Up 19.2% for the 12 months ending November 30, 2023. But, yes..... Whether you are aware of it or not, your credit score impacts your credit score. Depends on the given company as to how much. As an aside, my tri-merge FICO is 827, and my insurance increased roughly 20% this past year. Still pretty low since I drive a 2022 Hyundai SEL (inexpensive, basic/standard, 4-door car), but yes..... My insurance went from $625 per 6 months to $750 per 6 months here with the bill I received a couple weeks ago. Peace.

My parents’ insurance has gone more than double. They can just raise price however/whenever they want, because we have no choice because it’s a law to have insurance. I hate insurance so much, my car is more than ten years old and I have never caused an accident at fault, but my insurance is still going up.
I’m near the age of lady with raised insurance . We old 💩 know inflation better than anyone . When we got out of high school our gas was .36 cents Ice cream $1.50 and it was 1/2 gallon . Embarrassed me for saying inflation down .
The statement shows discount but they jack it up. You can't shop around anymore because the insurance companies have a network to track your personal information. They will not compete infact they give you a higher quote so that you will not switch your plan!
Lol shop around?? There’s only 4 major insurance companies in the whole state of Massachusetts and they supply the insurance for the mom and pop companies, it’s a monopoly.. best advice I could give is move out of the northeast!!!
I live in Maine thought I was getting shafted as prices gone up a lot last couple years. Shopped around and nope everyone jacking their prices up. A lot of the inflation can be tied to poor leadership ship white house, Bidenomics new wars, border issues, etc. but this just seems like pure greed to me.
@@bossbrent yes it varies by state, I was paying $480 in Massachusetts 6 months ago, now I live in California and I’m paying $291 same car, same coverage. Insurance is based off a lot of things such as weather, road conditions and your own personal driving history. So for example if you live somewhere it doesn’t snow insurance is going to be cheaper than some who lives in somewhere it snows. So if you never move outta Georgia you’ll never know if it’s cheaper somewhere else
@@floridanick8434 while that's true, when people mention cost being more or less, it's always relative to the cost of living in that area or region For example, for one to say that $400 is cheaper than $500 is nonsense if average monthly income in the area that's $400 is $2800 (14%) vs average monthly income in the area that's $500 is $5000 (10%). In short, everything's relative! (Especially incest)
@@bossbrent i dont know about that but what I do know is the cost of living is more expensive in California but Florida has higher insurance rates, the costs of living is higher in California than it’s in Massachusetts but Massachusetts has higher rates so i dont know if what your saying is accurate
Am I missing something? 820 in a yr is 38 dollars per car per month. Is $79 a lot for a 10 yr old car that is a liability? Can someone explain this to me? I've hard my own car insurance for a yr now, was car insurance pennies in the '10s?
Greed. No other excuses.

The problem is the no fault law that Mass has. You could be the safest driver in the world, but you need to pay for everyone else who aren't.

How did that happen??

Please name who you've moved to - I'm sure people would like to know!
I'm with Geico and they suddenly raised my rates as well. Currently looking for a insurance provider.
I’ve been with Geico for over 10 years, my rate was $94.69 a month, a few years later I’m pay $140 a month with zero accidents. Greed!!! That’s it. Greed!!!!
I’m with GEICO as well they said my insurance by $70 a month
@davidg3944 it wouldn't matter because everyone has different variables that would cause it to be higher or lower than the OP

Could be due to your credit score.

No they have to get permission from state insurance commissioner
The insurance rates vary _significantly_ by the town you live in. It can be double/half by moving a few towns over.
Discrimination.
