Rialto & San Bernardino County
7.6% of Rialto workers now work from home — and if your car stopped commuting, your policy should say so, because annual miles are part of the rate. The state's own crash rankings recorded 468 people killed or injured on Rialto roads in a single year, which is the number your liability limits are really there for. 21 pedestrians were killed or injured here in the same year, and pedestrian claims are exactly where a thin liability limit runs out. In the year the state last ranked, 36 fatal or injury collisions in Rialto were hit-and-runs, which is what uninsured-motorist coverage exists for. Speed was a factor in 74 fatal or injury collisions in Rialto that year, and a speeding ticket goes on the same driving record your rate is built from. 19.5% of Rialto households run a single vehicle, so when that one car is off the road the whole household is, which is what rental and towing cover are actually for.
