Americans’ auto-insurance rates are rising rapidly because President Joe Biden’s migration policy puts millions of new migrants on the road, often without driver training or English language lessons.
Federal data shows that monthly auto insurance rates rose by roughly 8.3 percent under President Donald Trump, but by 20 percent under President Joe Biden and his pro-immigration vice President, Kamala Harris.
That 20 percent jump adds up to an annual $500 “tax” on Americans’ pocketbooks.

The huge inflow has stalled wages and raised housing costs, and has also imposed many other civic and social costs on ordinary Americans.
The Biden damage done to American roadways is spotlighted by Springfield, Ohio, where roughly 20,000 imported Haitians have inflated local insurance rates by roughly 40 percent amid a chaotic cascade of crashes by untrained migrant drivers.
In a September 8 TikTok video, Springfield resident, Dustin Geisel said the inflow of Haitians raised his auto-insurance rates:
I live in Springfield, Ohio, where the influx of Haitians are and we had a enormous amount of car accidents because they don’t know how to drive. So now, because that, my car insurance has gone up significantly. I might as well be taking out another car payment at this point just to cover my cars, but the government makes it so that you have to have car insurance. So I thought, you know, I’m going to shop around and see if I can find a cheaper rate. And all of the other insurance companies have given me the same rate, if not more, so I don’t have a chance.
In subsequent videos, Geisel, an auto mechanic, showed some of the crashes and described his search for cheaper insurance.
The New York Post reported on September 15 the rising number of fatal crash crashes in the county where Springfield is located:
Eight people were killed in seven car accidents in Clark County in 2023, up from just two fatalities in two accidents in 2022, according to the Ohio State Highway Patrol overseeing the county comprising the small city.
Traffic accidents involving injuries in Springfield have also risen, climbing to 414 so far this year compared to 362 in 2023 — a 14% increase.
The New York Post also witnessed one accident where a Haitian driver veered in front of and collided with the truck of a driver whose autistic daughter was in the vehicle with her:
The Haitian driver, who remained at the scene, told The Post he was licensed and was driving to his job at Amazon. He said he had lived in the US for three years. “I went to turn, there was an accident and that’s it. Why are you asking me questions?” he said.
Ohio officials seem to be trying to ignore the issue, mostly because they want the imported and subsidized workers to be able to drive to their lower-wage jobs.
Outside Ohio, rates are also climbing fast nationwide, especially in states with many new migrants.
Auto insurance rates are lowest in low-migration states, including Maine, Idaho, and Vermont, and highest in Florida and Louisiana, according to an August report at USNews.com. The site ranked Ohio are the fourth cheapest state, but that is expected to change.
