That's actually not true. The ones by me are packed. Only upside is you'll see all the Asians wearing masks (so they won't sneeze on you) because China is reporting that you do need masks.
I guess it depends if you live in an area that has a large Asian population.

So I called the non emergency number, and they said that if the package was delivered to someone, it's theirs now, and the liability for misdelivery is on the courier; there's apparently nothing illegal about this. If the neighbor took the package from my property, it would be illegal.

Are you asking if that's too expensive for both of you? Depends how old your cars are and howong you've had your insurance as well.

Having a relatively new car is going to cost you a lot more than a 8-10 year old car
Ones 2019, the other's 2013. And we've been with the same insurer for 6 years now.

Two drivers. Two cars. We're both 25+. No accidents, no tickets, etc.

Both cars have comprehensive $50 deductibles, and collision $500 deductibles.

As for liability, we have $1mil/$1mil coverage, with $500k property coverage, and full tort rights.

You should check your policy for potential exclusions. It should all be laid out there. If you're not already covered than I'd recommend the $28 option
I called and confirmed: My insurer will not cover vehicles above 9,000 lbs (or some other height of vehicle or weight of cargo it can carry, whichever comes first; they will also not cover exotic vehicles, not by value but by brands apparently), and therefore the liability coverage will also not be extended. Bleh.

Maybe it's different depending on the type of vehicle or depending on your state. In NY your personal carrier extends to cover your rental vehicle too, usually with the same coverages
Yes, but only up to certain limits. For example, if you rent a truck, or if you rent an exotic vehicle, your personal insurance usually does not extend.
