someones progressive insurance rant
i came across this a little while ago while surfing the web. i have no idea whether it is true or not but the thought of this being true is just plain terrible.

just make sure you tell the guy who checks out the damages that some of your gear got scratched or whatever. i showed him the scuffs on my bike from when i flew off and he asked to look at the boots and then pooped me out another 500 even when i said i wasnt going to get new boots lol

Just read this thing on Reddit. heres a quote from someone that works as a personal injury lawyer
Quote:
Also this is pertaining to Auto insurance. I wonder if the same holds true for motorcycle insurance. Of the "Good ones" mentioned, none have motorcycle insurance....

When I actually get a car, i'll choose one of those better ones..i can't qualify for USAA. so...USAA partnered with Progressive for motorcycle insurance? is it OK to assume they aren't totally full of sh!t when it comes to motorcycles then?

ive only had one experience with them so far and it was a pretty good one. although my insurance did go up 40% but that was to be expected. I think my healthcare is covering my medical stuff because i only got a dislocated shoulder so it wasnt that bad. Now if someone else was involved my my accident that might be a different story but i really have no idea how different it might be

A personal injury lawyer would have solved all their problems with this, and for that reason I don't believe it.

i think its kinda understandable. i got my bike when i was 19, first bike, and the accident happened about 9 months later. im sure someone with more experience wont have their premiums go up by such a large number

Sadly that story is true.
http://online.wsj.com/article/APe0f7...73ab6e653.html Also there was a recent news report about a woman being denied coverage by her insurance company, Liberty Mutual http://www.wfsb.com/story/19276696/woman |
