Default Insurance Myths

Myth No. 6: Drivers of sports cars get more tickets and thus pay higher insurance premiums.
Fact: That's not necessarily the case. According to a study released in 2009 by Quality Planning, leading the pack with the most violations are drivers of the Hummer H2/H3. Hummer drivers have almost five times the average number of violations. Drivers of three Scion models (tC, XB Station, XA) also made the top 10 list. Others on the list include drivers of two Mercedes-Benz models (CLK63 AMG, CLS63 AMG), two Toyotas (Solara, Matrix), the Subaru Outback station wagon and the Audi A4.

Who the heck is Quality Planning and where do they get their data from! I think this is a case of someone not liking Hummers pulling data out of thin air.
