Push for no fault insurance moves forward nationwide
Legal experts from all states tentatively back a strong no fault auto insurance proposal. The draft law would guarantee payment of all reasonable medical expenses for auto accident victims, regardless of fault, and would bar suits for medical bills while allowing suits for property damage beyond auto, pain and suffering, and long-term disability in limited cases. It parallels a Senate push and seeks broader coverage than existing plans.
