SB 1164 appropriates $1,000,000 from the state general fund in FY 2001-2002 to the county jail juvenile improvement fund.
There is a proposed strike-everything
amendment to SB 1164 as follows:
The strike-everything amendment to SB 1164 is identical to the Senate-engrossed version of SB 1502. As such, the strike-everything amendment adds to the list of insurance practices that are in violation of A.R.S. 20-461 when performed with such frequency as to indicate a general business practice. The bill makes it a violation of the Unfair Claims Settlement Practices Act if a person denies liability for a claim on the sole basis that the insured’s medical condition affected his/her driving ability without conducting a reasonable investigation and providing medical opinion supporting the denial.
Automobile insurance policies provide liability coverage when an insured’s negligence causes damage to a person and/or property. In the event that an insured is not at fault, yet causes damage due to a circumstance such as a medical condition, the insured may not be covered by his/her insurer because the cause of the accident was not due to a negligent act.
