California tweaks low-cost car insurance program
California recently made its low-cost auto insurance program more convenient for consumers by authorizing participating insurance agents to print valid new temporary proof of insurance card at offices. The change eliminates the two-week wait for mailed proof of insurance cards. The program also launched a texting feature to make purchasing a policy easier. When consumers text "low cost" to 65374, they are prompted to provide their ZIP code and then are matched to pre-screened insurance agents in their area. The agents call consumers with formal quotes and help them sign up for the low-cost insurance program.
