New Insurance Legislation Aims to Cut Premiums in South Carolina
Rep James Roland Smith says last week’s General Assembly passing could lower premiums for good drivers by pushing violators into the Reinsurance Facility and removing some coverages for those who lost the safe driver discount. The measure would add 24 to 60 million dollars to the facility to cover losses and may reduce recoupment fees for compliant motorists. It also bars writing physical damage coverage for drivers who lost the safe driver discount, aiming to shift cost burdens away from good drivers and encourage safer behavior.
