California has introduced a new auto insurance option for its drivers: pay by the mile. Customers pay for miles actually driven rather than estimated mileage, which is one of the major factors in determining insurance rates. It is estimated by the Environmental Defense Fund that if 30% of drivers elect this insurance option, the reduction of CO2 emissions through the year 2020 would be equivalent to taking 10 million cars off the roads. Imagine Los Angeles without any smog! For more information on this and other auto insurance-related issues, contact the California Department of Insurance (http://www.insurance.ca.gov/).
