SB262 Summary

  • Establishes insurance requirements for transportation network companies (TNCs) that operate in Alabama, effective 90 days after enactment.

  • Requires TNC drivers to maintain primary automobile liability insurance of at least $50,000 per person/$100,000 per incident/$25,000 property damage while logged on and available, and $1,000,000 combined coverage while engaged in a prearranged ride.

  • Mandates TNCs provide written disclosure to drivers regarding insurance coverage types, limits, and notice that personal auto insurance may not cover TNC activities.

  • Allows traditional auto insurers to exclude coverage for vehicles used as TNCs without violating motor vehicle safety responsibility requirements, and prohibits coverage under TNC policies from being dependent on personal insurers first denying claims.

  • Requires TNCs to provide accident details including driver login/logout times and allows insurers to request coverage information from other insurers involved in claims.
