Progressive dramatization of a true story. Cop says he shows up to an accident and an insurance agent is already there putting out a small fire. Makes sure to indicate he didn't interfere either, just there helping and keeping things calm.
Progressive and other direct-advertising insurance companies (like Geico) were working their way into the market in this time. They purchased a few long-form ads like these to get exposure and define their corporate identity.
This spot aired on KRON during Hard Copy after the 5th game of the Baseball World Series on NBC on October 23rd, 1997.
