I am looking elsewhere for insurance. The first company I called for auto told me that I had a bargain. He told me that he could beat my price if I reduced my liability coverage from $250,000 to $25,000. He said that the average bodily injury claim in Florida is only about $15,000 so I was over-insured.

I am still looking!
LOL. I think you are underinsured. I have $1 million in liability. One way to reduce your auto insurance is to drop the uninsured motorist coverage. I have zero. I would never file a claim for that, and it is mostly redundant with medical insurance.
