Thanks, I have three in a row so I have to fight otherwise my insurance goes way up. Our insurance here is run by the state/province and the rates are insane for driving infractions. I'll post here what happens. It should be good for a few laughs at the very least. Government insurance can sometimes be a lot of fun. This past spring a woman ran a red light and smashed into the rear wheel of my truck. The wheel was bent and government insurance decided instead of replacing the wheel it should be sent out for repair. The value of the wheel was maybe $250, the cost to fix it was $75, the cost to rent me a truck for 10 days was $600. This is what happens when government owns an insurance company.
