I've heard too many horror stories about Progressive. Don't know if they're all true though. The only one I *do* know, is some idiot in a pickup backed into my parent's '97 Saturn shortly after they bought it. The only thing damaged was the hood--it was a bit bent up. The pickup driver said that he simply didn't see the car, and admitted it was his fault. He just wanted it taken care of...but Progressive wouldn't pay the claim... Eventually, it all got taken care of, after a little chat with our attorney
I can't complain about State Farm though. (I got hit by one of their clients back in 2000.) Some idiot in a Lexus rear-ended my Tercel. My car was drivable, his wasn't. I'm sure his wife was pleased when she found out he'd just fucked up her brand-new car... But seriously, State Farm came through, and made my 9-year-old car look like new.
As for Safe Auto, the reason their rates are so high...is because the people they insure have driving records that suck. They're desperate, in other words.
