No-Fault Alternative Proposed by Republican Senators
Senator Edward P. Thomas and six Republicans join Senator Newton L Steers Jr to sponsor comprehensive no fault auto insurance legislation as an alternative to Mandel Administration proposals. The bill caps medical claims at 1500 before litigation, requires compulsory auto insurance, and sets medical payments by average costs from Maryland Hospital Cost Analysis Service. It contrasts with Sen. Conroy’s bill which uses a 500 threshold for medical expenses and wage losses.
