Young Summit Man Skips Car Over Insurance Costs
Michael Angelo, 21, from Summit, New Jersey, won a new $8,000 car but cannot afford insurance quoted at $7,214. His father told a state Senate committee that after payments there is about $200 left for food and perhaps one beer. Allstate proposed a policy for bodily injury, collision, property damage, and other coverages totaling the high premium, with surcharges for one accident and several violations.
