§ 4211 Volunteer drivers
§ 4211. Volunteer drivers
(a) An insurer may not refuse to issue motor vehicle liability insurance to an applicant solely because the applicant is a volunteer driver. An insurer may not impose a surcharge or otherwise increase the rate for a motor vehicle policy solely on the basis that the named insured, a member of the insured's household, or a person who customarily operates the insured's vehicle is a volunteer driver.
(b) For purposes of this section, "volunteer driver" means a person who provides services, including transporting individuals or goods, without compensation above mileage expenses to a charitable organization or nonprofit corporation established under Title 11B, pursuant to a written agreement.
(c) This section does not prohibit an insurer from refusing to renew, imposing a surcharge on, or otherwise raising the rate for a motor vehicle liability insurance policy based upon factors other than the volunteer status of the insured driver. (Added 2009, No. 80 (Adj. Sess.), { 1.)
