Christmas Shoppers: Beware!

December 1st, can you believe it? Only 24 more shopping days!

Did you know there is huge big spike in parking lot fender benders during the Holiday Season?

Makes sense, with the increased volumes at the shopping malls & grocery stores, & the hustle & bustle that comes with shopping.

Some tips:

  • With snow, ice & fogged windows, it is even more important to remember to take your time.
  • Warm up your car.
  • Turn off the radio & cell phone as you navigate in & out of parking lots & spaces.
  • Take a moment to smell the mistletoe. Remember: The Holiday Season is supposed to be fun & relaxing & a time to reconnect with family & friends.
  • Drive Safely!

Auto Insurance

Price is important, but it should not be everything.

Advertisements on television & radio suggest you are paying too much for auto insurance. Maybe you are. Maybe you’re not. Sometimes, especially when talking about auto insurance, you pay for exactly the coverage you carry.

Do you carry Collision & Comprehensive Coverage on your vehicle?

What are your liability limits?

Do you carry towing & labor +/or substitute tranporation?

Are you taking advantage of all the different discount programs that are available?

You premium may seem terrific, until claim time.

Your Massachusetts Independent Insurance Agent will shop your insurance with multiple companies to ensure you are receiving the best rate, with the best company.

  • If a driver is caught texting while driving, the penalties include:
    • First offense: $100 fine

    • Wilmington, MA RMV office closed for 24 hours

    Wilmington, MA branch Registry of Motor Vehicles was closed from approximately 12:30 pm 9/27/2010 to almost 1:00 pm on 9/28/2010 due to a local power outage.

    This afternoon, this roving insurance agent found the Wilmington, MA RMV branch burdened with processing pile-ups & edgy MA auto insurance consumers.

    Luckily for the MA Registry of Motor Vehicles, the Wilmington branch employees are tremendous.

    These Registry employees fly in the face of the nationally stereo-typed DMV employees, as they are kind, generous, patient & nice!

    This has been a local, MA independent insurance agent update.

    Over & out.

    MA auto insurance case study

    Independent MA Insurance Agency improves your coverage & saves you money on your Massachusetts home & auto insurance. Consider a Personal Liability Umbrella Policy.

    Our Independent MA Insurance Agency wrote a piece of business this past week that makes an interesting case study.

    The client is a 52 year old man, living in Quincy, with a perfect driving record insuring a 2009 VW Jetta.

    His policy was renewing with Metropolitan and he carries excellent liability limits ($250,000 per person/$500,000 per accident); $500 Collision deductible & $300 Comprehensive deductible.

    His annual premium was renewing at $1,283.

    After reviewing his coverage options, we were able to re-write his auto insurance, with a $1,000 Collision deductible for an annual premium of $885.

    Our new client also purchased an Apartment & $1,000,000 Personal Liability Umbrella insurance policy for $255.

    So, his new total insurance premiums are :  $1,140.

    Less than his old premium … & now he has apartment & umbrella coverage!

    It is a reminder to have another set of “insurance eyes” review your insurance.
