California Boosts Minimum Auto Insurance Requirements for First Time in 50 Years

Credited from: LATIMES

  • California has increased its **minimum auto insurance requirements** for the first time in over five decades, effective January 1, 2025.
  • The new regulations stem from **Senate Bill 1107**, known as the **Protect California Drivers Act**, signed into law by Governor Gavin Newsom in 2022.
  • Previous minimum liability limits set in **1967** were deemed inadequate, prompting calls for higher coverage amid rising repair and medical costs.
  • While those with **higher-than-minimum coverage** likely won't see changes to their premiums, younger and low-income drivers could face slight rate increases.
  • The changes are anticipated to **benefit drivers** in accidents by providing coverage for greater expenses, addressing financial risks especially for vulnerable communities.
