Auto Insurance
Car insurance is one of those “gotta have it” items. If you’re recovering from an accident and properly covered, you’re more than relieved. Simply put, not being well-covered is not an option.
Whether it’s a minivan or an exotic sports car, it’s smart to do your homework and get the exact coverage you need. There are many factors that go into ensuring you have the right coverage – that’s where Solace comes in. We analyze your individual requirements and do the homework for you by searching for the best rates – then we tailor a policy that is as close to ideal as possible.
We believe an informed customer is our best customer. Your family’s safety is everything, so we don’t stop at “insured”. We want you informed, educated, safe, secure – so we publish vital auto safety information and tips that, when followed, saves lives.
For example, the NSC (National Safety Council) reports that cell phone use while driving leads to 1.6 million crashes each year. Nearly 330,000 injuries occur each year from accidents caused by texting while driving. To put it in perspective, one out of every four car accidents in the United States is caused by texting and driving.
Per the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), people ages 15-24 represent only 14% of the U.S. population. But they account for 30% ($19 billion) of total costs of motor vehicle injuries among males and 28% ($7 billion) among females. The risk of motor vehicle crashes is higher among 16-19 year-olds than any other age group. Teen drivers ages 16-19 are nearly three times more likely to be in a fatal crash than drivers ages 20 and older.
- No texting or cell phone use while driving.
- No alcohol or drug use while driving (better yet, not at all).
- Always wear a safety belt.
- Rules established (calling parent, using Uber).
These four points alone would drastically reduce the accident and fatality rates in the United States.
