“Drivers can save money on their insurance rates, by choosing to drive a safer, cheaper car to insure”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)

Insurance companies analyze a vast number of factors to determine the premiums paid by their customers. Some of these factors can be improved by the policyholders, while no one can improve other policy determining factors. The following top factors can have a significant impact on the premium paid by a policyholder:

• 
  Demographic data. The driver’s age, sex, and marital status can influence the insurance rates paid to the insurance companies. It’s a known fact that teen drivers and senior citizens pay the highest auto premiums only because of their age.
• The make and model of the car. Cars that come equipped with many safety features can lower the premiums paid by a policyholder. On the other hand, high-end models, or expensive sports car are more costly to insure, as the price to repair these types of vehicles is higher than that of regular cars. Also, expensive car models are a preferred target for car thieves.
• The place where the policyholder lives. Insurance companies will analyze certain data about the place where a policyholder lives. Insurance companies will increase the premiums of the policyholders who live in densely populated areas with high rates of theft and vandalism. Usually, drivers who live in cities tend to pay higher premiums than those that live in rural areas.
• The purpose of the vehicle. Drivers who use their vehicles for long daily commutes will likely pay higher premiums than those drivers that use their cars during the weekend.

Marjean L., NEA/PSEA/PMEA Member and Counselor at Penn Manor High School in Millersville, PA Wins California Casualty’s “Keep On Course” $25,000 Giveaway

We appreciate everything you do and we know that your commitment extends beyond school to your home and family.

SAN MATEO, Calif. (PRWEB)
November 12, 2020

California Casualty just awarded $25,000 to NEA/PSEA/PMEA member and Counselor at Penn Manor High School in Millersville, PA, Marjean L., through its “Keep on Course” Giveaway. The national contest launched January 2020 and ended early October — with Marjean randomly selected as the winner. Marjean’s entry was one of nearly 38,000 received.

The “Keep on Course” Giveaway was introduced by California Casualty just before COVID-19 became a reality. The purpose of the campaign was to remind educators — who typically lead extremely busy lives — to avoid the temptation to multi-task or become otherwise distracted while driving.

Today, the reality of virtual, classroom and hybrid learning requires educators (who are often parents) to juggle even more tasks at home and at work. Driving when there is so much going on — rushing to the next destination because they were helping their kids or students for longer than expected; mentally rewriting the ever-growing home/work checklist; or sending that quick text to let colleagues or loved ones know that they’re on their way — is still dangerous despite there being fewer cars on the road.

California Casualty wants you to stay focused on the road when behind the wheel. “Your safety is important to us,” said California Casualty Sr. Vice President Mike McCormick. “We appreciate everything you do and we know that your commitment extends beyond school to your home and family.”

It means a lot to California Casualty, NEA Member Benefits and Pennsylvania State Education Association (PSEA) to award this gift to a well-deserving educator. Marjean is a school counselor who has been in education for 28 years. She chose her career to help students reach their potential and find happiness and success in life. When asked what it means to be a counselor in 2020, she replied that society is filled with so many challenges and that it’s a privilege to help students through life.

Mary Kay Fair, Penn Manor Education Association (PMEA) President, shared her thoughts during the surprise assembly. “We are so happy today that our long-term member Marjean was the national winner of the California Casualty “Keep on Course” Giveaway and the $25,000! It’s very timely because it’s the Penn Manor Education Association’s 50th Anniversary. We always tell our members to be sure to use their NEA Member Benefits Programs. We are very happy for Marjean today and we greatly thank California Casualty!”

Marjean heard about the California Casualty contest through a member benefit email from the National Education Association (NEA). She plans to use the $25,000 to help her daughter with college tuition. Still in shock, she added that the possibilities are endless.

She finished her thoughts on winning the contest with one important reflection, “I didn’t need a check to show how grateful I am to be a member of the Penn Manor Education Association (PMEA).”

California Casualty has been serving the needs of educators since 1951 and is the only auto and home insurance company to earn the trust and endorsement of the NEA. As a result, NEA members qualify for exceptional rates, deductibles waived for vandalism or collisions to your vehicle parked at school, holiday or summer skip payment plans and free Identity Defense protection – exclusive benefits not available to the general public.

More than 1 million people go to ER every year for slipping or falling.

Falls are the leading cause of injury for all age groups and medical bills top $35 million each year.

PASO ROBLES, Calif. (PRWEB)
November 12, 2020

Slips and falls are some of the most common accidents. Estimates are that more than a million people go to the emergency room every year as the result of slipping and falling, for an average cost of $30,000-40,000 per case. John Donovan Insurance Agency in Atascadero CA, providing life insurance and homeowner insurance, has reported the safety precautions that can help prevent slips and falls and reduce the cost and liability.

The cost of falling is much more than just financial:

• 
  Falls can break teeth, cause serious scrapes and skin damage that can lead to infections and scars
• Around five-percent of falls result in broken bones
• One-third of adults over 65 fall each year and falling is the most common cause of a broken hip
• Falling is the most common cause of brain injury
• Falls are the leading cause of injury for all age groups and medical bills top $35 million each year. An average of 11 days of work are lost per fall, creating an additional hardship for workers who don’t have sick or personal leave from their employers. One source, the National Safety Council, reports nearly 700 workplace deaths for one year.

It is important for individuals, families and employers to be insured to reduce their liability in the event of injury or death. Homeowner, renter, worker’s compensation and life insurance are all protection against the cost of slips and falls. But insurance is only part of the solution. Prevention is a big part and goes a long way towards preventing injuries and the associated costs.

The team at John Donovan State Farm insurance in Atascadero are happy to help with life insurance and other insurance needs and offer some basic tips to help prevent falls in the first place.

• Maintain enough outdoor lighting so people can see clearly
• Clean up spills, inside and outside, and take preventative measures to prevent water, even snow and ice from building up where people walk
• Repair or replace torn or worn carpets, rugs, runners and mats
• Make sure carpets, rugs, runners and other floor coverings are secure and don’t slide or slip under foot
• Repair cracked and damaged sidewalks and parking surfaces
• Keep obstacles such as toys, building materials and other items out of the way of foot traffic
• Make sure there are handrails on steps and stairways and the handrails are secure

For additional safety tips, visit the State Farm Insurance Simple Insights page. It’s also a good idea to review your insurance policies to know how you are protected in the event of a fall on your property. John Donovan and his Atascadero team are happy to review your life insurance, homeowners, renter, and other insurance policies to make sure you are adequately protected.

“Online quotes are important for both the drivers and the insurance market”, said Russell Rabichev, Marketing Director of Internet Marketing Company.

LOS ANGELES (PRWEB)
November 11, 2020

Compare-autoinsurance.org has launched a new blog post that explains the benefits of price comparison for the car insurance market.

For more info and free car insurance quotes, visit https://compare-autoinsurance.org/why-is-price-comparison-so-important-for-car-insurance-market/

A highly competitive car insurance market benefits both the customers and the insurance companies. The customers have access to all the useful information they need to compare car insurance offers.

• 
  Price comparison ensures a safe economic climate. In a thriving, developed economy, maximum transparency is guaranteed. Quotes allow the customers to have an insight of the prices offered by the insurance companies. This makes sure that all companies provide fair prices for all customers. Customers avoid companies that ask exaggerated prices for basic services that elsewhere are sold at regular prices.
• Price comparison offers equal chances for both customers and insurance companies. Without quotes or other tools for comparison, several categories of drivers would have a hard time finding car insurance. Teen drivers, DUI convicted drivers, and senior citizens are considered high-risk drivers, and many of them need to apply to a non-standard carrier to get insurance.
• Another important aspect of price comparison is avoiding scams. A high number of insurance companies that scam their customers still exist. Companies that offer much lower insurance premiums should be avoided.
