When we lived at our old house my ex husband was hit by a drunk driver who hit him and then fled the scene. It was a Sunday morning and he was on his way to the gas station where we always bought the Sunday paper and chocolate milk and donuts. For some reason he was driving my mom’s car, probably because ours wasn’t working.

Thank goodness she had great car insurance! He had the right of way and as he was crossing the intersection, the drunk ran her red light and smashed into the side of mom’s car. It was a good thing that mom had full coverage auto insurance on that car since the other driver left the scene.

Mom was able to get another car pretty quickly after the accident and the agent gave her several new auto insurance quotes in order to find one that fit her needs.
