Insurance Problems

[tcrist]

Let's look at it this way. If you start a buissness, the idea is to make money. If you start a buisness with the intention to lose money you are about 5 cans short of a six pack. If you start a buisness that is diversified, I.E. a grocery store selling different types of goods, a party store with different types of products or an insurance company (different types of cars) and one of your products is not selling or it is costing you money, you are going to quit selling that product. With insurance companys, they will quit selling insurance for that type of car. Again, what Robbin was trying to say is that we need to control ourselves with our cars. This instance is with Cobras. If you go to other high performance auto forums you will run across the same issues. Personally I thank Robbin for bringing this to our attention. It does not take too many accidents with high doller autos to cause the insurance companys concern. I think a safe drivers course is a good idea. Although my Cobra has a lot less HP than a lot of others (350HP) it is quite enough for a car that is light weight. I don't think that insurance companys will lower the rates of people that take safe driver courses but if people take the courses then maybe their rates will not go up as much as people that do not take a safe driver course. We all have to control ourselves. We also do not need to make claims that are bogus. If we are at a track an lose control of our cars and wreck them, bite the bullet and fix it yourself. You are the one that screwed up, not the insurance company.
