Bill Summary

AI Summary
This bill repeals a section of West Virginia law, specifically §33-6-31d, which previously dealt with optional uninsured and underinsured motor vehicle coverage. Uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage is a type of car insurance that protects you if you're involved in an accident with a driver who doesn't have insurance or doesn't have enough insurance to cover your damages. By repealing this section, the bill effectively removes the legal requirement for insurance companies to offer this specific form for making such coverage offers to policyholders.
