Hello, 'm working on a MoneyGeek piece focused on answering
high-level questions about auto insurance. I'm looking to get
answers from academic experts, members of industry groups, or
other consumer advocates/professionals. I am not looking for
answers from independent insurance agents at this time. The
questions I want answered include:

area/zip code interpret the data? What should they know about
insurance as a business/practice to better understand how
premiums differ?
2) What factors of an auto insurance application are allowed to
be utilized in determining an individual's premium?
3) What can someone do about managing/lowering their auto
premium if their neighborhood is one that has higher premiums?
4) Are there specific changes to auto insurance as an industry
on the horizon? What could/should change about the industry?
Requirements:
Please supply your answers by Friday, 7/24 at 7:00 p.m. EST.
Thanks!
