Sunnyvale & Santa Clara County
4.9% of Sunnyvale commuters spend an hour or more getting to work each way, which is a different risk picture from a short local drive. 4.3% of Sunnyvale workers get to work on public transit, so plenty of people here drive occasionally rather than daily. 27% of Sunnyvale workers now work from home — and if your car stopped commuting, your policy should say so, because annual miles are part of the rate. 26 pedestrians were killed or injured here in the same year, and pedestrian claims are exactly where a thin liability limit runs out. Speed was a factor in 88 fatal or injury collisions in Sunnyvale that year, and a speeding ticket goes on the same driving record your rate is built from. 23.6% of Sunnyvale commuters are at work inside fifteen minutes, and annual miles driven is one of the factors California rates on.
