Exactly. And here's the ultimate irony: Those who are stupid enough to allow their insurance company track their driving habits (i.e.: sold out their privacy and freedoms for a few bucks) will be the loudest to whine and complain when for whatever reason THEIR premiums get raised.

It's not dissimilar to a recent thread where a poster was "happy" that sheriff pulled over a "speeder" on BV (limit 35) because he "deserved" it while that poster was driving at 42 and the other guy was going faster. I never got a response to my comment that he was also "speeding" and maybe the slug going 28 thought that HE deserved it as well. So, did he have a tracking device??? I doubt it.
