Try calling them direct to see if they are available on the weekend. As for the MA insurance program - I'm looking forward to real competition because I'm an experienced, suburban driver with an excellent driving record and credit history. I pity those without the above because it'll be just like the last time they tried competition - rates rose 3-400% overnight. I remember my Dad's 73 Vega costing over $1K to insure because we lived in the city. The car wasn't worth $3K brand new!! |

My wife, the pharmacist, often receives professional calls as well. We are happy to retire where we worked as it is my intention to dance with the people who paid for the band.

| I had progressive insurance when I got in an accident due to a DUI. I am not sure if they are going to cover me now as obviously, the accident was considered my fault and all, and I now have a DUI on my record. My question for everyone is this: now that I have a DUI on my record, what type of repercussions are there going to be from the DUI and does anyone have any experience with insurance after a DUI and insurance afterwards? I have stopped drinking, praise God, but they are not going to care about anything but my driving history; I know this, but I want to know who a reputable company is (not Allstate or Nationwide as they are scamartists!) that may cover me for a low amount of money, or the lowest available with the record I now have. Thank you in advance for anyones help! | |

Hopefully you didn't kill anyone or injure anyone,other than yourself. US sober drivers are the ones who suffer, some for life, because you had to drive drunk! Everyone 'finds God' in prison as well...then WE are suppose to forgive them for murder or rape. BUT since you asked a question politely, the basic answer is...every insurance company will look at your entire record. They will see IF you have any other accidents or DUI's, your age of course, male or female, all the standard stuff, and if they take you as a customer, they will base it on your entire record, not just that 1 event. But it will be higher,usually for a period of time,1 or more years. Try the major companies, State Farm, Geico, etc...but you may end up with a 'mom and pop' insurance company,if the big guys find your record to dangerous. Can you tell I have no compassion for drunks?! 'Recovering' or not.
