Illinois car insurance agents of Insure on the Spot are thrilled to discuss 2012 Super Bowl game playing Sunday.

Indianapolis’ Lucas Oil Stadium is the site of this season’s Super Bowl XLVI game.  The New England Patriots will play the New York Giants.  Both teams played against each other in the 2008 Super Bowl game, and the Giants defeated the Patriots that year.

Bill Belichick, head coach of the Patriots, and quarterback Tom Brady, are back for their fifth Super Bowl as a coach-quarterback pair in 11 seasons.

New York Giants upset the second-seeded San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship and also defeated top-seeded Green Bay Packers.  The Giants beat the Patriots in the regular season game and are hoping to do the same on Sunday.

6:30pm EST is kickoff.  The game airs on NBC.  Visit the Super Bowl website for details.

A study conducted by the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute has shown that teens in Illinois are less motivated and excited to get their drivers licenses than in years past.

In 1983, 80 percent of 18 year olds had their drivers license, but in 2008 the numbers dropped to 65 percent.  As always, the cost of driving is high for new drivers.  The cost of gas, car insurance, and a car can all be deterrents for teenagers planning to drive.

West Aurora High School senior, Rachel Berry, stated, “I waited until I was 16 and a half (to take my test).” She also said that many of her friends also waited, and some are still without licenses.

On Tuesday, State Senator John Cullerton (D-Chicago) stated that there is a strong possibility of a cell phone ban on its way to the state of Illinois.

It has been illegal since 2005 to drive while using a cell phone in the city of Chicago.  And on New Years Day, the state banned large truck and bus drivers from using a cell phone unless it is hands-free.

Last month, the National Transportation Safety Board made suggestions that cell-phone use both hands-free and handheld should be banned across the country.  State Senator Cullerton said,  ”It’s the distraction in talking to someone that’s not in the car with you. It’s not what’s in your hand, it’s what’s in your head.”  It is unclear when this new law would be added, but driver safety has been a very popular issue amongst the state legislature.
