My car insurance is getting jacked up. I emailed a rep (actually more like 5 since every response is a different person) and can't get my rate back down. They are raising rates everywhere for no reason that they will tell me. They don't even have the correct vehicle info but keep saying it can't be changed because it's tied to the vin.

Anyway I had an idea. I change my deductibles to the max, $2000. It'll save me a lot of money. Then if I ever have a claim I can just grab my phone and change the deductible back to say $250. You can update coverage anywhere on the fly. It probably won't work but why not give it a shot if I need it? Everyone I ask tells me "Nah, they trace you" but on the other hand everything is so backed up, automated and diversity hired I'm starting to think I can get away with it.

It's new so I can't just do the minimum. I miss driving beaters around and not having to give a shit.

They told me they it had nothing to do with me; they are raising rates for my entire state. Maybe to pay for incoming illegals and Afghans who will drive around uninsured. Or migrating Dems. Everyone here drives trucks 5mph under the speed limit.

I'm just going to bump up my deductible, negates the difference and then some. If I get in an accident I will put it back to $250 and see if I can get away with it.

Honedtly it's probably just inflation. The money supply is 40% greater than 2020 meaning the actual value your money is that much less. I will not show in whatever basket of goods bullshit the government does

True everything else has gone up so it makes sense this as well.

You hit the nail on the head. The most popular insurance for illegals is "Get Out and Run". The system can't track them down and prosecute. This has left the comprehensive and uninsured actuarial tables in shambles. States have mandatory insurance laws, but illegals don't give a shit about the law.
