Re: “The cost of saving ICBC” (Opinion, The Tri-City News, Aug.16).
It’s time to get new people who can run the insurance corporation. It’s crazy.
Why do we all get penalized for bad drivers? I don’t know why they cant figure it out? Every day you see people breaking the law and sometimes there is a police car there and nothing happens.
I see the same car run the same stop sign at times on my drive. Repeat offenders and driving records should be more in play. Their rates should keep doubling until costs are so much they will use public transport and then there is a bad driver off the road and we don’t have to pay for the accidents they cause.
Good drivers have to get compensation for being good drivers — not penalized for the huge and growing amount of bad ones as population density increases. Good drivers are compensating for the costs of bad drivers — ridiculous.
Get them off the road for the good of all and there will be less injuries and fatalities. Eventually, our rates will reflect that.
