The last time the State of California took action to protect drivers from serious financial harm by setting mandatory auto insurance liability minimums was 55 years ago – putting California in the bottom three states in the nation. Those minimums do very little to protect today's victims of motor vehicle accidents. Today, Sen. Bill Dodd (D-Napa) introduced Senate Bill 1107, sponsored by CAOC, that would make two significant changes to California law:

• In 1967, the legislature set liability minimums at $15,000 for single injury or death, $30,000 for the injury or death of more than one person, and $5,000 for property damage. Under SB 1107, auto insurers would be required to offer modernized, mandatory minimums of $30,000, $60,000 and $25,000, respectively.

• Under current law, auto insurers are given a stautory offset for underinsured motorist coverage (UIM). SB 1107 would ensure drivers with UIM are fully protected by eliminating the offset so insureds get what they pay for.

It was a tally that shocked the experts: 38,680 deaths on U.S. roadways last year, the most since 2007, even though pandemic precautions had dramatically reduced driving.

"The law is humanity's sanctuary, where we retreat from unreason. And humans need the law, because they need to believe there is some justice to their interactions, a justice that God or Fate or the Universe, call it what you like, will never provide on their own."

- Scott Turow
