Bill Summary
An Act To Amend Section 83-11-101, Mississippi Code Of 1972, To Mandate Uninsured Motorist Coverage In All Automobile Liability Insurance Policies; And For Related Purposes.
AI Summary
This bill mandates that all automobile liability insurance policies in Mississippi must include uninsured motorist coverage, which protects policyholders by covering damages for bodily injury, death, or property damage caused by an uninsured driver. Previously, individuals could reject this coverage in writing, and it was not automatically included in renewal or replacement policies if initially rejected. This change aims to ensure that all insured drivers have a baseline level of protection against accidents involving drivers who lack their own insurance.
