In one study, Michigan had the highest auto insurance rates in the nation. In another, Michigan ranked 11th in the nation.
That's according to a piece from Dawson Bell at the Detroit Free Press. Bell writes both studies cited "the state's unique mandate for unlimited coverage for personal injuries as a primary cause for high rates."
From the article:
Michigan auto insurance rates led the country -- $2,541 a year for a hypothetical 40-year-old man with a clean driving record -- in an annual survey released last week by the consumer insurance information site insure.com. The Michigan rate jumped more than 21% from the same survey a year earlier, overtaking Louisiana, which topped the list last year. Vermont, at $995 a year, was the cheapest place to buy auto insurance, the survey found.
