Quotes about Car Insurance from the world's top natural health / natural living authors
"We all have car insurance to cover us in the event of an accident, and we understand that we also have a deductible, a sum of money that we have to pay before our insurance kicks in. Certainly we don't expect our car insurance to cover the cost of new tires, oil changes, and other routine maintenance. And when our car is making loud, scary noises, we don't ignore it. We take it to a good mechanic. Not just any mechanic; we find someone we can trust. We need to learn to view our health in this same way.

Corporation of British Columbia to adopt a "car insurance by the km" scheme [see Urban Transportation, p. 262]—monthly premiums would be calculated based on kilometers driven, with higher rates for distances driven during peak hours.

"Several states are considering "pay at the pump" car insurance strategies, wherein a surcharge would be added to the price of a gallon of gas to pay for a car's insurance.
