Has anyone heard of McGraw Insurance Services? I have been checking out quotes for my bike and these guys were about $80.00 cheaper than the ballpark I got from all the “big name” companies. I checked out the BBB and they didn’t have anything bad to say about them, but it just seems t good to be true. Just wondering if anyone has heard of them, dealt with them or is still insured with them.
I have to have full coverage, I am 20 years old, Progressive quoted me $127.00 a month. That just seems extremley high, and thats with a clean driving record!
Try Geico, I only pay 165 per year for two bikes.

Im thinking about getting a moped(50cc) and i was woundering if i need a special drivers licence to drive it? And do i need to get insurance for it? I live in California.
What if it was a 49cc? And can Cops tell if its a 49cc and 50cc?
for a MOPED under 149CC’s You will need register the bike and obtain a Motorycle License and Motorcycle insurance unless it is a motorized bicycle which is just subject to a $18 registration fee.
If you’ve had an auto accident anywhere in San Diego, from Carlsbad or Oceanside to El Cajon and Chula Vista, you’ve probably been wondering if the California state legislators are working on any new Bills to try to prevent accidents.
I had heard that the state’s legislators were rushing to pass a new laws to prevent auto accidents so I called one of my state Senators to learn how this would affect drivers in California and personal injury victims. I was in for a big surprise.
“So you’re outlawing texting?” I asked.
“We’re working on it, we’re working on it” the Senator said.
“What are you thinking about prohibiting to prevent auto accidents?” I asked.
“For one thing, no more grooming,” the Senator said.
“That’s good,” I said. “No more watching people work on their faces or their hair while they’re driving.”
“No, no, we’re talking about grooming their dogs. That’s verboten now. But I suppose we might as well add human grooming while we’re at it.”
“What about eating and drinking coffee,” I asked.
The Senator frowned. “The fast food industry wouldn’t like that, but drinking alcohol is still a no no if you are in your car.”
“Okay, what about making it an offense to be reading a newspaper?”
“You want to get on the bad side of literacy advocates?” the Senator asked. “Still, maybe we could get outlaw the reading of liberal newspapers,” the Republican said.
“Forget that I asked,” I said.
“What about watching TV while driving?” I asked. “Surely that should be stopped.”
“Are you nuts? Those minivan TVs are one of the few areas in which the car industry is making any money. They have to stay,” the Senator said.
“So what are you considering outlawing?” I asked.
“Well, you’d probably be surprised what some people do in their cars.”
“Nothing would surprise me,” I said. “I’m a personal injury lawyer.”
“You’ll be glad to hear that in the not too distant future drivers won’t be allowed to have a tanning machine on while in their car.”
“Okay,” I said. “The fewer distractions on the road, the better, I suppose.”
“Also, no more cooking in your auto, suv, or minivan,” the Senator said proudly.
“Did a restaurant association suggest that?” I asked.
The Senator ignored my comment. “We’re also going to make it illegal to be using your computer while driving.”
“What about those computer navigational systems?” I asked.
“They’re okay.”
“IPods and iPod Nanos?”
“Okay too.”
“Car computers for gas efficiency, mileage, tire pressure and the like?”
“Still fine.”
“What kind of computers won’t be allowed?” I asked.
“We’re working on that,” the Senator said.
“Sounds like you’ve got your work cut out for you,” I said. “But what about having people just use their common sense not to do things that make it hard to concentrate on driving?”
“Being an auto accident lawyer, I thought you knew,” the Senator said. “If there isn’t a law against it, someone’s always going to think it’s okay to do.”
“So what about texting?” I asked.
“We’re working on it,” the Senator said.
