Alright Redmond, it’s that time again—summer road trip season! That glorious part of the year when the weather hits that sweet spot between “kinda nice” and “am I melting?” You roll the windows down, blast your favorite playlist, and tell yourself this is the year you're going to Crater Lake, or Mount Rainier, or maybe just the outlet mall in North Bend because gas is $5 a gallon and your car drinks it like it’s iced coffee.
Either way, before you pack up the snacks and ask your cousin if they really need to bring a full suitcase for a weekend trip, there’s one thing you better make sure is locked down—your auto insurance. Because the only thing worse than a car full of sweaty family members arguing over directions is realizing you’re not properly covered when someone rear-ends you in a Taco Bell drive-thru.
Let’s be honest—when was the last time you looked at your car insurance policy? No, seriously. Do you even know what’s in it? Or did you set it up years ago when you still had a Blackberry and thought TikTok was a sound a clock made?
Your life’s changed. Your driving habits have changed. Your beard grew in. You got a new job. You finally admitted Waze is smarter than you. And if you’re planning to hit the open road this summer without checking your coverage first? Man, that’s a risk bigger than trusting your cousin with aux privileges.
You’re not out here trying to save five bucks a month just to pay five grand when something goes sideways. Let’s break it down:
This covers injuries or damage you cause to someone else. If you rear-end someone because you were distracted by the world's most dramatic squirrel crossing the street, this is what keeps you from draining your savings account.
Covers damage to your car in an accident. Whether you hit another car or misjudged the distance to that suspiciously low parking garage roof… collision coverage has your back.
This is for all the wild stuff that doesn’t involve another driver. Think falling tree branches, theft, vandalism, or when that family of raccoons decides your engine bay is their new Airbnb.
Because, unfortunately, some people out here are driving without insurance like it’s a suggestion. This coverage helps you avoid paying the price for their poor life choices.
Flat tire in the middle of nowhere? Battery dies in the hotel parking lot? Locked your keys in the car while trying to be slick on the road trip? Don’t worry—roadside assistance is your new best friend.
You know Redmond is beautiful—trails, trees, tech companies that make you feel poor just looking at them. But when it comes to traffic? It’s a whole different vibe.
Bumper-to-bumper chaos on 520? Every. Single. Day.
Construction season? AKA the only season we really have.
Confused tourists looking for Microsoft HQ? You’ve seen 'em. They stop in the middle of the road like it’s a museum tour.
Whether you’re cruising around town or hitting the highway for a summer escape, Redmond traffic has no chill. And that means you can’t afford to roll with the bare minimum.
A rock flies up and cracks your windshield. Now you’re trying to navigate using a spiderweb of glass and hope.
You get rear-ended at a rest stop. Congrats, your bumper’s in two pieces, and now you’ve got to negotiate with someone named “Lenny” who insists he doesn’t believe in insurance.
You left the car parked in the city, and someone keyed it. Because nothing says “happy summer” like mystery scratches and a broken side mirror.
You hit a deer. Or worse—a moose. It’s Washington. You never know.
Don’t let a moment like that ruin your trip or your bank account. Let your insurance do the heavy lifting while you focus on what really matters—figuring out who’s eating all the snacks and pretending they didn’t.
We’re not some giant, faceless company where you talk to six robots and still don’t know what your policy covers. We’re local, we’re in your corner, and we know exactly what Redmond drivers deal with every single day.
