No fault insurance topic Sparks Brown critique at Bar
California Governor Brown blasted no fault car insurance as a free ride while urging personal accountability. He told the State Bar Board that eroding individual responsibility could inflate costs and questioned adding nonlawyers to the board. He warned against magic solutions and noted only one no fault bill was pending.
