interesting articles

so my grandparents came in from edmonton last night. and while we were sitting around drinking she pulls these articles out of her purse and tells me to read them as she thought they were quite interesting. well after reading the first one, my jaw hit the floor, this kid got a bill for renewing his auto insurance that came to over $100,000. i nearly **** myself and then started laughing a little bit but anyways here are the 2 articles that she brought.

Sounds like this kid is a maniac on the roads. I am glad that he well never be able to afford insurance. I do not feel sorry for him one bit.

"By keeping sufficient funds available in your account, you avoid a charge fee of $25"

isnt that the understatement of the year.

10 speeding tickets
2 fender benders
1 accident that totaled his car

He drives a Nissan 240 and he says that most of his speeding tickets were only a "couple" of kilometers over the speed limit? I HIGHLY doubt that.

I am glad to see that he will not be driving because obviously he is a menace on the roads.

ya if he can get his car insured in B.C. then by all means just means that we won't have to deal with him. i like my $3000 a year payment its quite low compared to some of my friends. i pay $260/month. and ya the kid was obviously going a little faster then a few over the speed limit, cuz the cops very rarely pull anyone over for a couple over its when you get in the excess of 10km or more then they start caring.

I pay $190 / mnth for full coverage on my S/C (lease vehicle), as well as basic liability on the winter car. I just recently took the drivability insurance off the Cobalt, (she's parked 'til summer) and just left the necessary Theft, fire, etc. My payments have dropped to $21 / mnth.
