Our View: Underinsured drivers also a danger
Reporter Jeff Engelhardt’s story this week about uninsured drivers contained some eye-opening statistics.
According to the Insurance Research Council, about 15 percent of Illinois drivers – more than a million people – are on the roads without insurance for their vehicles.
The Secretary of State’s office puts the number considerably lower than that – it says its random surveys of 300,000 drivers at a time show about 4 percent of drivers are uninsured.
