What about costs? In 2013 there were dire warnings about a looming “rate shock”; instead, premiums came in well below expectations. In 2014 the usual suspects declared that huge premium increases were looming for 2015; the actual rise was just 2 percent. There was another flurry of scare stories about rate hikes earlier this year


So much for the triple digit rate increases that some DUers have claimed. We;;, perhaps not ... going for no premiums (i.e., no insurance) to having to pay something, would represent a huge rate increase. Wouldn't it?
