Nothing ambiguous about that, to me.

And it's inevitable that nobody will cover HPDE on a normal auto policy, IMO.

Right, so I parked my car...then a tire wall ran into it. That's comprehensive

On mine, collisions with animals are generally considered comprehensive rather than collision. YMMV. As always with insurance, it depends policy by policy, state by state.

exactly but I don't think the claims officer is gonna buy it.

"I parked on a hill and all the tires were rolled down by the local teens and ran into the side of the car"

Yeah, I just have to work on my sales pitch.

"there were these REALLY big tires you see..."

Add Progressive to the list of insurance companies that have now adopted similar verbiage.

My most recent renewal (also for WA) included almost identical wording that states no coverage when driving the car on a track designed for racing. This is a change from my coverage as of last year which was specific to events in which either racing, timing or practice for such an event was involved.

Thanks for the head's up Mike - my homeowner's policy is from State Farm and I was considering switching my S2k over to that company after reading my recent Progressive renewal. I guess I will be doing some more insurance shopping now.
