It would be just fine with me if the government stopped forcing people to purchase auto ins. Thats just a small % of what we sell and my house hold make up here is the 35 to 45 year old couples with 1.7 kids with incomes around $150,000 plus. Most of them purchase ins. to protect their assets and not because they are forced to buy ins. If that was the case they would just buy the minimum coverage and not increase their coverages. If I wanted government help I'd be for more regulations which drives up the prices and my commissions. Good example of that is New Jersey and New York. I've had customers move from NY to Va. and save $4,000 just on their auto ins. If Va was regulated like NY that would be another 4 grand I would get paid commission on. To be fair some of that is higher labor cost but allot has to do with heavy regulations.

Also the state of Va. does not force anyone to purchase auto ins. If you don't want to buy ins you just have to pay DMV the $500 and your good to go.
