California Law Requires That ALL Auto Insurance Policies Contain Uninsured Motorist Coverage Unless It is Waived In Writing

In a prior post, I re-printed California Insurance Code 11580.2, which sets forth the requirement that each and every insurance policy in California must contain coverage for bodily injury in the same amount as the baseline coverage for uninsured motorist coverage unless it is waived, in writing and with very specific language.  Every driver in California of a car, motorcycle or truck should check their own policy and ask their insurance broker whether they "waived" their uninsured motorist coverage or whether it is in place.

Due to the poor economy, more and more drivers in California are driving without insurance.  This makes is crucial to have California uninsured motorist liability coverage in your California automobile insurance policy.  If you have this coverage and are involved in an accident where you are injured by an uninsured motorist, this allows you to submit your accident and injury claim to your own insurance carrier for payment of medical bills (present and future), lost wages or earnings and pain and suffering.
