Abstract: The insurance industry is failing to satisfy its urban auto insurance customers' affordability needs. This has contributed to a serious industry image problem. The public is demanding that the industry find a solution. A National Coalition for Auto Safety is proposed involving insurers, consumer groups, and safety interest organizations. Operating at both the national and state levels, the Coalition would mount a comprehensive attack on auto accident costs encompassing auto damageability factors, occupant protection measures, driver behavior modification, traffic law enforcement, and various other elements of our urban traffic systems.
