I always flip a coin for whether I upvote or downvote. It's not really about trying to make a decision, I'm just trying to get my thumbs in shape for that thumb wrestling tournament I have coming up.

Insurance isn't required for your car. It's required to drive for everyone else's car, and required for when the bank still owns your car, but not when it's yours.

Eh, on the other hand, some cops LOVE the fight.

Yeah well someday I might get rich, and then I'll want everyone else to pay for me!

I've heard that too, but then why wouldn't you just want to rub your feet on everything instead of looking at other people's feet?

Good question, I copied this response from Quora, but looks legit to me, feel free to do more digging as required. The equation doesn't copy well here, but you can Google it and find the answer with the equation intact.

Let's assume that you have a 1500 kg car including baggage, driver, etc. You want then to add another 65 kg passenger. Since fuel consumption is highly dependent on driving style and on the routes you take, let's also assume that your average fuel consumption is 6.0 L/100 km, considering no extra passengers. The last assumption I'd make is that fuel consumption increases linearly with car weight, if the weight deviations are low.

We can use a simple proportion to estimate the fuel consumption with the added weight, considering all of the above assumptions:

(Removed equation would be here)

That is a 4.33% increase on fuel consumption.

These assumptions may not be very accurate, but personally I believe that this estimation is a worst-case scenario.
