H 1086 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act authorizing insurance providers to extend motor vehicle liability insurance rebates to customers with safe driving records

This bill allows insurance companies to offer rebates or partial refunds on motor vehicle liability insurance premiums to customers with safe driving records. It directly affects policyholders who haven't had surchargeable incidents (like accidents or traffic violations) during their policy term, and insurers who want to implement such programs. The key provision removes previous restrictions in insurance law, enabling insurers to create supplemental agreements for these rebates after policy expiration. However, insurers must first get approval from the insurance commissioner for their rebate program and must offer it equally to all eligible safe drivers. This change aims to incentivize safe driving through direct financial benefits.
