Texas auto insurance premiums rise on new rules
Insured Texas motorists face a double dip in premiums over the next five months due to higher accident losses and a new liability law. Rates rise after August 1 for bodily injury, property damage, and collision, with an average 5.2, 8.7, and 8.4 percent increase respectively, costing policyholders about 12 million dollars. Rural areas escape some increases while a separate rider limits physical education spending unless students major in PE, prompting protests from schools.
