An earlier Insurify article incorrectly stated that North Carolina drivers potentially faced a 22.6% car insurance increase, depending on the outcome of a rate hearing before Insurance Commissioner Mike Causey.

Causey and the N.C. Rate Bureau, which represents auto insurers in the state, reached an agreement for a 5% increase in June 2025. Due to that settlement, the expected hearing was canceled.

We apologize for the error.
