Comment on We Found Insurance Fraud in Our Crash Data

Comments

The conclusion is a little too strong for my tastes. Changing coverage looks sketchy, but I’d bet people shop around after a crash and the ensuing rate hike.

Being involved in multiple accidents could suggest fraud but it could also just be bad driving, maybe someone very young or old.

It’d really help to know the base rates for many of these things: how often do people switch insurance, for example?
