Federal control fears rise with auto insurance hike
Indiana Insurance Commissioner Joseph G. Wood warned that a about six percent rate increase set by the Insurance Rating Board could foreshadow federal regulation of auto insurance. The higher premiums apply on renewal and affect a sample one-year-old car with standard coverage, varying by city from Indianapolis a peak rise to 190 dollars to smaller increases in Fort Wayne and other cities. Dominant firms State Farm Mutual and Allstate follow the board, with most Indiana companies spared.
