Baltimore Drivers Face Legal Higher Auto Insurance Rates
Baltimore residents pay more for auto coverage than rural Maryland drivers amid a dispute over territorial rating. Insurance Commissioner Donaho defended the policy as actuarially justified, citing higher city risk from urban claims. Lawmakers and city officials denounced the ruling, pledging court challenges and potential legislation to curb geographic-based rates.

State slashes BG&E rate hike in Maryland decision
Baltimore Gas and Electric will charge residential customers about 2.96 dollars more monthly after the Maryland Public Service Commission approved a 77 million dollar, 4.7 percent rate increase. The decision rejects a planned 4.4 percent jump to fund Brandon Shores 2, and disallows full recovery of Calvert Cliffs nuclear costs. The ruling sets the stage for a later 72 million dollar request when Brandon Shores powers up in 1991.
