The alternative is living in an area where you don't have to drive everywhere to get things.

I drive maybe 200 miles a month now. I walk down the street to a supermarket to get toilet paper when I run out.

But still pay full insurance presumably?

I've been fighting this with the insurance company ever since the pandemic started. We no longer drive anywhere daily, working from home. But the insurance company wants to maximize profit so they won't approve less than 6000 miles per year, a number they made up, and keep raising prices.

I barely drove 6000 miles a year pre pandemic while living in the suburbs!
