What changed

The proposal would reduce required financial responsibility coverage from $1.25 million to three times the statutory minimum in Vehicle and Traffic Law section 311(4), and remove the requirement to maintain $1.25 million SUM coverage.

Compliance perspective

Affected insurance and peer-to-peer car-sharing stakeholders should review coverage structures and state filing assumptions if they rely on the prior $1.25 million thresholds. The proposal appears targeted, but it changes a concrete state insurance requirement.
