Responsibility In New Auto Law in Pennsylvania
The 1933 Pennsylvania financial responsibility law takes effect January 1 requiring owners and operators to show proof of ability to pay claims from accidents over 200 dollars. Two or more accidents in a 12 month period, or unpaid final damages over 200 dollars, trigger proof of financial responsibility and possible license or registration suspension. The law aims to curb unsatisfied judgments and will suspend licenses until payments and future proof are ensured. It also allows relief after three years without violations or new sizable accidents, provided no pending claims exist. The article cites Pennsylvania’s high automobile casualties since 1920 to explain the need for the act and its impact on motorists.
