DISQUS

As gas methodically approaches $5.00, and a goodly amount of drivers are curtailing all but the most necessary car use, it is time for auto insurance companies to begin to offer rate reductions or rebates for those who can qualify by reduced miles driven. Using the odometer found in every vehicle, which displays the car's every mile driven, it is easy to keep up with every mile driven. Since these companies are getting the the same money for carrying less risk, they make more profit, but it is undeserved. They are in essence overcharging. When I used Rural Electric Coop, I would send the electric meter readings to the coop. Then they would bill me. No difference here. We all have to do our part in these costly times.

Irrespective of the merits, Hillary's Gas Tax Holiday paid for by BigOil would be vetoed by "w". I would rather see an effort to have auto insurance companies rebate or reduce rates for those who cannot buy gas to drive but are made by law to have standard liability insurance.

I'm 62 and my car is semi-permanently parked because of high gas prices. Since I'm driving much less(no choice) I'm posing much less risk for my auto insurance company policy which it is mandatory. Less risk should translate into less cost, either by rebates or rate adjustments by the company. For those wanting to apply for these price changes, the odometer already in all vehicles could be used to determine whether a vehicle qualifies. Wha' d'ya think?

Finally science might reign supreme over narrow-mindedness regarding medical marijuana. The Governor deserves so much credit for getting the ball rolling. Hopefully B.O. will make it a slam dunk. It is the right thing to do.
