A bill concerning auto insurance in Pennsylvania was signed into law recently by Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro.
House Bill 710 will require PennDOT to create an online verification system to modernize its processes for ensuring that drivers are carrying insurance on their vehicles as required by law. Under the prior law, insurance companies would notify PennDOT when a policy is cancelled, but companies were not required to give similar notification when a new policy was acquired. If vehicle owners missed written notification from PennDOT to provide proof of insurance, those owners were then given a three-month suspension of their registration.
The bill passed the state house and senate unanimously.
