S 606 Massachusetts Senate · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act relative to the compulsory automobile insurance limits

This bill proposes to increase the minimum required auto insurance coverage limits for drivers in Massachusetts. Specifically, it would raise the mandatory bodily injury liability limits from $20,000 to $50,000 per person and from $40,000 to $100,000 per accident, while also increasing the minimum property damage liability limit from $5,000 to $30,000. These changes would directly affect all vehicle owners and drivers in the state who are required by law to carry compulsory insurance. The legislation aims to ensure that drivers have higher financial protection for injuries and property damage caused in accidents.
