Going through some old newspapers on Newspapers.com, and I noticed that many newspapers, the Detroit News and Detroit Free Press included, had accident insurance back in the days. Until at least the 1980s-1990s, newspapers offered accident insurance to their subscribers and covered them in case of injury, accident, or death, and covered your bills if you had to be off work while recuperating. The insurance laws across the country have since changed, and what was covered is now covered by auto insurance agencies.Thursday, January 21, 2021
