I'm a pretty shitty driver, and I pay almost nothing on insurance. But I do live in a third world country, so we get to just cut connections on new data glutton cars, and nobody cares. Plus, any small car damage, we go to a friend's body shop, and fix it for a couple of hundred dollars, the insurance companies have no way of finding out.
