Introduced Text

Michigan SB0921 prohibits insurance claims for passengers in vehicles driven by intoxicated individuals.

Michigan SB0921 amends the state's no-fault insurance law to prevent passengers from recovering insurance benefits if the driver was impaired by alcohol or drugs. This applies to policies issued or renewed after the bill's effective date. The law specifically bars claims if the passenger also had an impaired ability due to alcohol or drugs, or refused to submit to testing. It also covers cases where other individuals were injured or killed in the accident.
