Or, with car insurance, you get punished for actually using the service you pay for.

Isn't the required car insurance the part that covers the OTHER cars, property and people you might harm with your car?
I don't think it's required that you carry enough insurance to be able to replace your own car. Might depend on your state, though?
Usually if there is a lien against the title, you're required to carry full coverage, and liability only when you own the title.
That's usually a policy of the lender, though, not a law.
That makes sense. I never put any thought into it other than knowing I had to carry it.
Oh I guess that makes sense, since the vehicle is the collateral on the loan. Hard to repo a wreck.
Its actually very easy to repo a wreck, but its not worth anything.
Yeah, you're right.
It is actually kinda incredible. I remember seeing a comic in Mad Magazine back in the 90s that satirized insurance companies by cutting 'expensive' healthcare and the cartoon showed an emaciated patient on IV and the insurance guy about to cut the tube with scissors.
They're the ones practicing medicine now
