Insurance companies are in the business of making money. Anything they can use as an excuse to raise your rate, they will, regardless of whether it has anything to do with how good a driver you are. I've been told my rate would be lower if I were female or married, traits that I don't see have much to do with my driving either. Raising rates on people with poor credit scores is particularly low because it's kicking someone who's already down. They're already short on cash, so you charge them more.
