Curious, have any LEOs out there pulled over an insurance SUV (has the company logo on the SUV) speeding to the scene of an accident? This morning I saw a "Progressive Insurance" SUV speed by me at what seemed to be at least over 80mph! I think he had flashing yellows but he was going so fast I couldn't even see them!
I don't get it. If a policy holder violates the laws of the road they stand the chance of being surcharged and have their rates skyrocketed. What about these guys? haha. I work in insurance but it just baffles me sometimes the way things work...

Heh, Progressive SUV's don't get the same priviledges as emergency vehicles, with or without yellow flashing lights =)

No reason for an insurance company to be "speeding to the scene of an accident." Ambers flashing? Press hard for three copies!

Ambers flashing at the scene is understandable - but not heading towards the scene...
