A good friend, Daniel, was sitting in traffic when he suddenly heard the distinct sound of metal grinding metal. When he looked around to see what was going on, he saw someone getting up slowly from the left-hand side of his car. He got out and saw that a 3-foot gash now adorned a stretch from the rear fender to the middle of the rear door and the motorbike that put it there. He says it was a good thing he had just upgraded his car insurance. Oddly enough, he’d been telling people about his fantastic new insurance company not a week before the incident. Said they offered plans and that the sales reps were very knowledgeable, even offering free quotes and auto insurance comparisons sans the subtle glare that usually indicated some type of threat: you’d better be in a buying mood, pal. Well, I guess he can now find out how good they are with claims.
