There is always the mute button. 

I did think the old Geiko commercials were funny.  Don't like a lot of the new ones.  All touchy feely with no substance, no comedy, no information.  Geared towards mellennials.

I totally agree with Land_Owner but he left out drug companies that do the same. We are one of only two countries in the world that allow this according to my doctor. We get promises from politicians that they will do something about drug costs every time they run for office and nothing every happens. The very simple and easy solution would be to ban drug commercials. Since I live in the real world I realise this won't happen. Drug reps would lose their jobs and the politicians would lose what the reps dole out to them. Jobs really don't matter but the largese from them does.

My state requires every vehicle owner to have insurance coverage. It's a total joke as it isn't enforced and the result is we have to still carry uninsured motorist coverage and the cost for it has risen to become the largest cost in a policy. Are the insurance companies and the politicians in bed together on this? Although I can't prove it my answer is a great big YES.

While I insurance rates are obscenely high, I am 100% behind mandatory vehicle insurance.  Many times I've seen uninsured drivers hit property, people, and other drivers. Most uninsured drivers are low income, and not only c
Will not pay  but cannot pay.

I have a little bit of experience with them , mostly just getting a quote. Geico and Hippo beat the socks off of them.
Especially Geico, $50.00 a month for full coverage veteran discount.
