The pandemic is keeping cars parked, which means fewer crashes — and big savings for auto insurers. Allstate and American Family Insurance have decided to return that extra cash to customers.

流行病让汽车停在停车场，这意味着车祸减少了，也为汽车保险公司节省了大笔资金。好事达保险公司和美国家庭保险公司已决定将这笔额外资金返还给客户。

The pandemic has emptied out U.S. streets as Americans stay home to avoid spreading the coronavirus. Less driving means fewer car crashes. Fewer car crashes means big savings for auto insurers.
