Motorcyclists Air Their Complaints

As your Viera motorcycle insurance experts, it’s important for us to keep our clients up to speed on industry trends and findings. Recently Erie Insurance conducted a study with Harris Poll to ask motorcyclists their top five pet peeves. This survey is interesting, and we’re sure you’re going to agree with their findings.

Top 5 Peeves against other cyclists
5) Riders who don’t wear helmets.
4) Riders who don’t wear protective gear.
3) Lane Splitters.
2) Passing on the shoulder.
1) Reckless, aggressive riders.

Top 5 peeves about Cars
5) Drivers not using turn signals.
4) Tailgaters.
3) Aggressive, reckless drivers.
2) Texting and driving.
1) Drivers who don’t check blind spots.

The key things we can wrench out of this survey is that following traffic laws are the best way to be a courteous, and safe driver. While motorcycle insurance can financially take care of you, passengers, and your bike in the event of an accident, the best way to prevent one is to follow traffic laws. Riding a motorcycle affords you freedoms that a four-wheeled vehicle does not; however, it is very important to be extra aware of your surroundings to ensure you’re safe, not annoying other riders, and have no reason to file a claim.

Updating Your Insurance Coverage After Major Life Changes

15 Jul, 2024

As we approach the mid-year mark (can you believe how quickly time flies?), we at Anthony Insurance Agency want to ensure your coverage is current and aligns with any recent life changes. It's essential to review your coverage periodically, especially after significant life events, as they can impact your coverage and premiums. Here are some common events that may affect your needs: Family Dynamics Changes in family size, marital status, or the unfortunate loss of a family member can significantly impact your insurance needs. For instance, adding a new family member might necessitate more extensive health or life insurance coverage, while a change in marital status might require updating beneficiary designations. Location Changes Relocating to a new address or a student moving away for college can also influence your insurance requirements. Moving to a new home might require adjustments in your homeowners or renters insurance, while a child going to college might need specific coverage for their belongings. Insurance Transitions Turning 26 and transitioning off a parent's insurance plan or experiencing a loss of job-related coverage are critical moments to reassess your insurance policies. These transitions can leave gaps in coverage that need to be addressed promptly to avoid lapses. Miscellaneous Milestones Becoming eligible for Medicare, fluctuations in income, achieving U.S. citizenship status, or transitioning post-incarceration are other significant milestones that can alter your insurance needs. Each of these events can affect the type and amount of coverage that is most appropriate for your situation. If any of these situations resonate with you, please schedule a consultation with us. By updating your coverage, we can ensure you're adequately protected in the most cost-effective manner possible. Let's work together to keep your coverage up-to-date and aligned with your current life stage.

Why not explore your neighborhood for walking trails or venture on a different route than usual? A change of scenery can do wonders for your mental and physical well-being. 2. Embark on a Local Adventure Summer is the perfect season for day trips. Consider planning a visit to local flea markets, malls, or restaurants with charming outdoor patios. To keep comfortable, alternate between indoor and outdoor activities. It's a delightful way to discover new places and create lasting memories. 3. Engage in Lawn Games With a significant portion of older adults living alone, staying socially connected is crucial. Lawn games offer a fantastic opportunity to engage in friendly competition. Gather friends and family for a game of cornhole, bocce ball, or simply enjoy a leisurely walk or day out. These activities not only keep you active but also strengthen social bonds. 4. Cultivate a Garden Gardening is a serene and fulfilling hobby that connects you with nature. Embrace the therapeutic benefits of tending to a garden.
