Yes, there rates are great, and I would recomend them for everyone that has
a family full of great drivers. If, however, you or any member get into a
series of accidents/tickets they are much quicker to drop you than other
insurance companies.

Once your dropped by any insurance company, you will normally be assigned
to your state's high risk pool, which means you are going to be paying a
lot more for your insurance, even though the other insurance companies may
have held onto you longer, in the first place.

The bottom line is, that, if you are fairly certain of everyones great
driving ability in your family, then go with GEICO, but if there is any
doubt in your mind, I would recommend going with a more lenient insurance
company.

Take Care,
Mike
