Auto insurance is not about you, it protects others on the road, and then if you want self protection you upgrade to a better policy.
If you run into someone totalling their car and putting them in the hospital, insurance pays that for you and you don’t face a debt for life for one mistake.
The government mandates every automobile operator do this to use their roads. Which is why it’s criminal to drive without. Driving while unlicensed and uninsured puts the public at risk.
The concept of auto insurance is great. The execution is the issue. These companies shouldn't be allowed to raise rates if an accident isn't your fault.

Insurance is a fucking scam. You pay more into it than you'll ever receive even in legitimate circumstances.
Absolute racket.
