Some auto insurers are refunding money
quote:
The pandemic has emptied out U.S. streets, as Americans stay home to avoid spreading the coronavirus. Less driving means fewer car crashes. Fewer car crashes means big savings for auto insurers.

And at least two companies have decided to pass those savings along to their customers.

We are in mid-analysis with our auto insurance company, where they collect data on our driving habits and then adjust our coverage accordingly. It's not pay as you go, but sort of the next step up, I guess.

At any rate, we've already received hefty refund checks, pre-quarantine. I figure at this rate, they're just going to give us a bunch of new cars when this is all over. Big Grin

Easier to read list here, but some folks have run into the Trib's paywall:

American Family is sending a $50 check for each vehicle insured.

We have 4 vehicles insured so we are getting the equivalent of 25% off our next two months premium.

My last gas bill was $997. This month it’s like $150.

Insurance stayed the same. Gonna make phone calls tomorrow.
