Bill Summary

Relative to the compulsory motor vehicle insurance limits. Financial Services.

AI Summary

This bill amends two sections of Chapter 90 of the Massachusetts General Laws related to compulsory automobile insurance limits, specifically increasing the required minimum insurance coverage amounts. In Section 1, the bill changes the required bodily injury liability coverage from $20,000 to $50,000 per person and from $40,000 to $100,000 per accident. In Section 2, the bill increases the required personal injury protection (PIP) coverage from $5,000 to $30,000. These changes would effectively raise the mandatory automobile insurance coverage limits for Massachusetts drivers, potentially providing greater financial protection for individuals involved in motor vehicle accidents by ensuring higher insurance payouts for medical expenses and damages. The modifications aim to update insurance requirements to better reflect current medical costs and potential injury expenses.
