State Farm
In business since 1922, State Farm Insurance proclaims itself America’s #1 car insurance company. This is not surprising since its founder, George Jacob Mecherle, worked to create a company that would be honest and fair. Mecherle felt that auto insurance companies should charge consumers who drove fewer miles less money, but he couldn’t convince the established insurance provider where he worked as a salesman to implement this plan. Therefore, he began his own company, State Farm, and this idea became one of the underlying principles. Clearly, it appears to be a good idea to customers because State Farm now insures the most cars of any company in the United States.
Available in all fifty states of the U.S. and the District of Columbia, State Farm also has agents in Alberta, New Brunswick, and Ontario, Canada. Auto insurance policies issued by these highly trained men and women can give protection against damages caused by an auto accident, including collision and liability. State Farm policies can also provide coverage for hospitalization costs due to injuries sustained in an accident; this usually includes the driver and any passengers the vehicles involved, as well as any pedestrians that may have been injured. Finally, State Farm can issue an auto insurance policy which covers any legal issues resulting from an accident. In today’s litigious society, this can prevent financial ruin.
To keep their auto insurance costs as low as possible, State Farm Insurance offers at least ten different discounts for good choices. Consumers who purchase other types of insurance besides auto coverage from State Farm receive a multiple line discount. Those who insure more than one car or truck get a multiple vehicle discount. State Farm also offers an accident free discount, a good driving discount, and a good student discount. Customers get a discount for taking a course in defensive driving and for student driver training, and younger drivers are even offered a Steer Clear Safe Drivers’ training program which results in a discount.
State Farm prides itself on quick, courteous service so it is no surprise that the company motto is “Like a Good Neighbor, State Farm is There.” With almost 17,000 agents, State Farm is easily accessible to almost every community.
