The internet is so useful for thousands of reasons and makes obtaining information so much easier (although sometimes for a price). It is interesting to me that you can now obtain a police report online. Recently I had to file a report for an accident and in order to file a claim with the other person's insurance company, needed the other driver's information from the report. I had two options basically in going about this. I could have driven downtown to the city county building and gotten the report from the citizens service desk for four cents a page. Or I could just get online and print the report right there; however, with that convenience comes a price, $7.14 to be exact. If you think about it though, it still costs for the first option. The gas you use to get there costs, each page costs, and the time you wait for the report in a sense costs too. Needless to say, I chose the second option and decided even if it did cost a bit more, I was willing to pay because I needed the instant gratification of the information with little hassle and time involved.
