For legislation to repeal certain personal injury protection motor vehicle insurance laws. Financial Services.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to repeal no-fault motor vehicle insurance laws, specifically by striking the last four paragraphs of Section 34A of chapter 90, which deal with "personal injury protection" (PIP), and by repealing Sections 34M and 34N of chapter 90, as well as Section 6D of chapter 231 of the General Laws. Personal injury protection, often referred to as PIP, is a type of auto insurance that covers medical expenses and lost wages for drivers and their passengers, regardless of who was at fault in an accident. The repeal of these provisions signifies a move away from the no-fault system in motor vehicle insurance.
