Bill Summary

Relative to insurance points surcharges. Financial Services.

AI Summary

This bill prohibits the Massachusetts Commissioner of Insurance from adding surcharge points to a motor vehicle insurance premium for at-fault accidents or moving violations resulting in damages of $1,000 or less. This is intended to prevent insurance companies from increasing rates for relatively minor incidents that do not involve significant costs. The bill aims to provide some protection for drivers from having their insurance premiums raised due to small claims or minor infractions.
