How can I obtain drivers insurance when neither parent has a license in California? and Carolyn Comeau On The Impact Of Health Insurance Reform

How can I obtain drivers insurance when neither parent has a license in California?

because insurance is a binding agreement that requires one parent to have a valid license, and neither of mine do, I cannot buy auto insurance.
- My grandparents will not help me either
I have 1000$ to buy insurance, and I will drive either way, insurance or not, is there any loophole around this law?
thanks.


insurance best answer:

Answer by StephenWeinstein
Insurance is a contract between the owner of the car and the insurance company. If your parents establish a corporation and the proper paperwork to make the corporation the owner of the car is filed, then insurance can be obtained.

The better option is to wait until you are 18. When you are 18, you can obtain insurance in your own name without having a parent with a license.

Carolyn Comeau On The Impact Of Health Insurance Reform

This afternoon at a press conference in the Capitol, Carolyn Comeau talked about how she will benefit from much-needed health insurance reform:

I'm Carolyn Comeau. I live in Ashville, North Carolina. I was diagnosed with breast cancer three years ago at age 45. I got the diagnosis call as my husband was on an important job interview for a position that would allow us to have good, high-quality benefits. Thank heaven he got those benefits in that job. However, seven months later, he was laid off. He works in the construction industry, which was hard hit in our state — and laid off in the middle of my treatment. We had no choice but to get — then get benefits through COBRA and that was ,058 a month for 18 months. We looked to the individual market for private-insurance, we did not qualify for Medicaid, and had a disastrous meeting with a representative from a company who quoted us ,000-plus a month for me only. You feel, in a sense, tainted. Being a woman should not be a pre-existing condition.

It's hard to describe the stress of going through a catastrophic illness and the side-effects of the treatment that you receive and worrying about the insurance mess at the same time and how you are going to make it through as a family. The light on the horizon that we thought we had was the North Carolina high-risk pool. I currently pay into that 0 a month. I have a ,000 deductible. However, my oncologist's office does — is not a member, is not affiliated with that program. And the latest update is that I just got word that there is an exclusionary policy with the high-risk pool for the genetic testing that my doctors want me to have, which would possibly impact my treatment and my future course as well as the futures of my children.

And the final highlight is that recently my husband and I did our taxes. And as we sat down and saw everything in black and white, we saw that very nearly half our income went to health-related costs. And that is just for me. My children are on the North Carolina CHIP program and my husband is uninsured.

So, the bottom line is — the reality: if you're healthy, you get insurance. If you get sick, there's no option — you then have a pre-existing condition, there is no place to turn. Insurance should help everyone, including those who need it. There's no real option in a private market for people with pre-existing conditions. So I urge and urge strongly that Congress make the humane choice for our country and pass this health care reform bill. Plain and simple: It's a broken system and it continues to leave a trail of families whose finances have been decimated by the system.
