It depends, where I'm from, if you are driving without insurance, regardless of whose fault it is, the person without insurance is considered at fault since they shouldn't have been driving in the first place. But yes, the post office would take it very serious and the mail carrier would get some sort of penalty. I work for CP and clipped a parked cars back bumper with one of the giant trucks rear end (they were parked over the parking exit curb and the truck was longer than I was used to) I got suspended and a mark on my record.

Yeah, tell that to my mailbox. My mail lady has run into it so many times I've given up trying to do anything about it.

Thanks for the heads up. I have them too, and did not know about the new car photo inspection. I would have thought they would have let you know that in an E-mail. You did pay for the insurance? I cannot understand how they would then cancel your policy. That is stupid.

What kind of car did you get?

That's bullshit I also have Progressive. Three policies personal Business and motorcycle insurance I have never done pictures and I have filed numerous claims. Of course it may very state to state and in his state they may require it

Look at the bright side, OP, at least it wasn't totalled, and you'll eventually be with it again.

Yeah ... Progressive is horrible!!! I had them for a little while and they were a nightmare.

They probably canceled it because they are a horrible nightmarish company. I can't even begin to say all they put me through.

Switch to geico. Progressive is run by a bunch of useless turds

That's very unprogressive of Progressive.

2015 Toyota Matrix

Progressive is shit indeed. After my ex and I split i called them and told them to cancle the automatic withdraw for her insurance. Everything was fime and dandy till 6 months later they decided to take one more paymenr out of my checking account causing me to overdraft. I'm still wating on a refund from them...hopefully month 30 is my lucky month.

Oh, very nice, OP! I have a 2007 Toyota Matrix, and it was also my first car. I adore it. On topic, holy crap, that's terrible...I have State Farm and if they can't get a hold of us via mail, they call our house phone. I seeing quite a few comments saying Progressive has a track record of this, I sincerely hope you can get it sorted and get your car fixed.

Agh I knew they were hiding something! Too many touchy feely commercials

You Americans and your obsession with suing never ceases to amaze me

Also former Progressive customer. A man had ran a red light and I hit him. I had 2 passengers in my car. He told the cops I ran the light. 10 minutes later a woman showed up and claimed she had seen the whole thing. Progressive went with his "witness" and I had to pay. I'm with Esurance now.

Just because it's the federal government doesn't mean it's going to be months. They have a procedure to follow just like any other insurance company, you won't wait any longer than you would if the claim was with your company. And you can't just sue them. They are a branch of the federal government. They are protected by federal law from people who want to slap silly lawsuits against them for something they are going to compensate you for fully.

We have Progressive, bought a new car, and we never had to submit photos. I have never heard of that before. Good luck anyway.

I had progressive as well for my '79 truck. After a year my insurance price went up, they said it was cause they only offer great deals within the year just to get people to sign up then raise it. I then recently bought a 2015 Toyota Corolla. They told me I would have to pay $800 a month for both cars, I cancelled the next day.

@51 If you had bothered checking you would have seen Op's comment, in which she states that she did pay her bill.

Wow. Paranoid much?
