Stop auto-insurers from penalizing customers for lapses in auto-insurance as a result for vehicles not being driven.
Why is this important?
My auto-insurance rates doubled because I let my auto insurance lapse on my vehicles while travelling out of the country. I was in Canada for 9 months and my insurance carrier would not lower the coverage on my vehicles. The vehicles were in my garage and not being used, however once I returned to the US, the insurer attempted to charge me 3-5 times the amount I once paid.
