SafeAuto Car Insurance - Gas Giveaway Social Contest

by Jason Parks May 15, 2013 02:49 PM

At SafeAuto Insurance, we specialize in minimum limit car insurance. We are well aware that drivers are looking to save money not only when it comes to purchasing their auto insurance, but also in their daily life activities. That is why we have decided to give away gas gift cards to our social media followers.

“Gas Giveaways” have been a staple on SafeAuto’s social media channels for the past several years. The affordable car insurance company realizes that saving money at the pump will result in more saved cash for a lucky social winner. According to GasBuddy.com, the US average on gas is $3.604. The lowest priced state is South Carolina at $3.219 and Hawaii is the highest at $4.325. Regardless of where you are located, SafeAuto believes that saving money at the pump can only have positive repercussions.

To win a $25 gas gift card, SafeAuto is asking our social media fans send a tweet to @safeauto the price of gas in their neck of the woods. Include the price and city where you are filling up your tank. We will randomly pick one of the Tweets as the official winner! In addition to the gas gift card, we will also provide a SafeAuto T-Shirt.

From all of us at SafeAuto… Drive Safe. Spend Less.         

Support in Michigan mixed for capping insurance payouts at $1 million

by Jason Parks May 8, 2013 02:52 PM

According to the definition, “No-Fault Insurance” has the goal of lowering premium costs by avoiding expensive litigation over the causes of accidents, while providing quick payments for injuries or loss of property. The victim’s car insurance company would only pay out the claim, while the driver-at-fault’s insurance company would pay out a claim and charge the party a higher insurance premium as they are now higher risk.”

No Fault Insurance has been a recent topic of debate in Michigan courts. Legislation to cap auto insurance payouts at $1 million passed out of the Michigan House committee on Insurance along party lines, with Republicans supporting the reforms.

The bill would end unlimited lifetime medical benefits for those injured in car accidents starting for anyone in an accident after December 31.

According to Michigan Governor, Rick Snyder, “Michiganders have seen their auto insurance rates rise faster than any other state in the country. It has been 40 years since the no-fault system has been implemented and it’s long overdue for review. These changes will create a policy that continues to cover accident victims far better than any other state and will create cost controls that stem the tide of rising insurance premiums while also providing immediate relief for families.”

We want to hear what you think about this new bill in Michigan. Voice your opinion on Twitter, @SafeAuto.

Horseless Carriage to Make Debut

by Jason Parks May 1, 2013 03:20 PM

Could you imagine Central Park in NYC without the horse-drawn carriages driving through it? That’s exactly how Brooklyn-born exotic car designer, Jason Wenig, pictures it.

According to an article in the New York Daily News, Wenig is building a prototype of an electric “horseless carriage” that could debut on city streets in about a year. His impetus for the new design? Wenig loves animals and thinks this is a great way to replace the horses used in the current carriages. Not only that, his vehicle, which is designed to fit eight people, features ergonomic and safety features not available in horse-drawn carriages, such as a sound system and seat belts.

While there are definitely some politics involved in the project, Wenig is not interested in getting involved. “I’m a car builder,” he said. “I’m so thrilled to get to build this beautiful piece of machinery for my city.”

We want to hear what you think about this new Great Gatsby style ride for Central Park. Like SafeAuto on Facebook to share your thoughts. Visit www.safeauto.com for a free auto insurance quote.
