Bill Summary

Relative to surcharges on motor vehicle insurance premiums. Financial Services.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing laws related to surcharges on motor vehicle insurance premiums. Specifically, it increases the threshold for a surcharge-eligible accident from $1,000 to $5,000, defines "minor" and "major" accidents based on claim payment amounts, and prohibits insurers from applying premium increases for at-fault accidents that do not meet the criteria for "minor" or "major" accidents. The changes aim to provide some relief for drivers involved in minor accidents by limiting the situations where insurers can impose premium surcharges.
