Insurance News - Tuesday, August 20, 2013

Here are the leading auto insurance headlines from ONTARIO AUTO INSURANCE TOPICS ON TWITTER for Tuesday, August 20, 2013:
  • Fatal collisions by 'distracted drivers' up 17% in Canada and distraction surpasses impaired driving deaths in 3 provinces.
  • One in five fraudulent claims are never detected so here are five keys to countering claims fraud.
  • According to the Insurance Research Council, in 2009 the proportion of uninsured drivers in the U.S. was 13.8%. - The state with the highest rate was Mississippi at 28.0% and the lowest state was Massachusetts at 4.5%.
  • Another article on telematics which is now reaching the mainstream media: New software allows insurers to track driving habits and personalize premiums.
  • The pattern is the same in every jurisdiction.  In the U.K. as auto insurers tighten up claims handling, fraudsters are moving away from just exaggerated claims to staging accidents.
