Introduced by: Christopher B. Saxman | all patrons    ...    notes | add to my profiles

SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Insurance for unregistered motor vehicles.  Exempts bodily injury and property damage insurance coverage on a motor vehicle, trailer or semi-trailer that is exempt from motor vehicle registration requirements, including vehicles used exclusively for agricultural purposes, from requirements that generally apply to liability insurance policies.  Such registration-exempt vehicles remain exempt from the liability insurance requirements that apply to registered motor vehicles.  Currently, an owner who elects to insure a registration-exempt vehicle that is designed for use on public roads must, with some exceptions, insure it under a motor vehicle insurance policy.  This measure allows such vehicles to be insured under a general liability policy.
