Warning: If you're located outside of New York State, feel free to skip this post. If you write personal auto insurance in New York, you're going to want to watch.
New York Insurance Law requires insurance companies to inspect many types of vehicles that they intend to insure for physical damage. Last winter, the New York State Department of Financial Services announced final adoption of a series of changes to New York Insurance Regulation 79, which sets for the rules insurers have to follow. A few of these changes will make life easier for insurance agents and their clients.
Clicking on the image below will take you to a 12-minute video in which I review the changes that most directly affect agents and their clients. The video and a link to the complete text of Regulation 79 are permanently housed on the Auto Insurance page in the Member Answer Center of the IIABNY Web site.
