Between my wife and I, we used to pay a minimum of $150 and $200 per month for a single car. That was what we paid, even if we didn't move it from the driveway.

With pay-as-you-go, we paid around $250 for last year, and it'll be less this year.

damn that's a lot. Where do you live?

Ontario, Canada (Near Toronto).

Our previous insurance was by far the least expensive, so I know it could have been worse. But over the pandemic, where we didn't drive much, it pissed me off to have to pay insurance and not even need it.

Then, when I started cycling more two years ago, I just stopped using the car for pretty much every trip that's less than 30 km way.
