[quote:Anonymous Coward 1221280:MV8xMzY4OTEyXzIyNTc1Njc2XzVENzg4RTQ2] [quote:Resister] Sinkholes need not breach the surface to do damage. Unless there is a new wieght like a building or road traffic huge caves can develop below the surface and go unnoticed on top. This isn't just a Florida thing. Think way back to... a few weeks ago and last fall when gas lines were popping and whole neighborhoods were being evacuated. The recent quake swarm in central AR. The 3+ quake just off the coast of Mobile AL. This is going to get worse. [/quote] True. Sinkholes occuring more frequently and a minor earthquake dreadfully close? I agree. [/quote]
Original Message
TAMPA - Sinkhole claims have nearly quadrupled in Hillsborough and Hernando counties since 2006. Now state lawmakers are on the verge of voting on a bill that could cost you your sinkhole insurance. Hillsborough, Hernando and Pasco counties make up Florida's so-called sinkhole alley. According to a Senate report, claims doubled and tripled between 2006 and 2009. ... “Claims are coming in at an astronomical level and the money coming in the door is not enough to cover that damage because it's not priced properly."
