Never had an issue with insurance companies but we have only had 6 claims and most of those were from accidents where we were hit. People can't park for crap in the greater DMV area!

I feel for you....and your daughter. I can also relate. My 17 year old son (at the time) was driving my Corvette Pace Car out of a parking lot when he got a lil' too anxious with the skinny pedal and spun it off the road side-swiping a street sign. He paid for the repair.

My wife got a 5 over speeding ticket on the freeway. Insurance goes up $300.00 every six months. All my cars have the cheapest, basic liability insurance only. Thus, I cancelled that COmpaNy and got it for below what I used to pay. F car insurance COmpaNies. Especially in Michigan.

If you happen to have vehicles that are 20+ years old, get them on an antique policy. At one point I had 4 older (1980's) Volkswagen products insured and the cost was under $300 per full year. Rates are based on declared values. Tickets didn't matter to them either, the rates remained the same.

Sorry to hear about the car but the important thing is the daughter is ok. I hope everything works out.

Bummer about the car, but kudos to your lil' girl for how she handled the situation.
