When I called to challenge the increase, I was
told that West Virginia state law *permits* them to increase rates even
if the insured is not at fault. The truck driver's insurance paid for
repairs to my vehicle.

I wonder whether anyone has sued the truck driver successfully for the
portion of increase in rates that was because of the collision, under
the "but for" rule (wouldn't have been increased that amount but for
the collision).
