California Car Insurance Rules for Boulevard Drivers
Mileage is one of the top rating factors, so remote workers here should report low annual miles if it is true. Long drives to town also make it worth carrying more than the 30/60/15 minimum liability limits, since a serious crash far from help can cost a lot.
