House Bill 3563 amends the Insurance Code to authorize the commissioner of insurance to issue a limited license to a rental car company for the purpose of extending insurance coverage related to excess liability, accident and health, personal effects loss, and any other coverage deemed appropriate by the commissioner. The act prohibits issuing insurance for car rentals for longer than 30 consecutive days from rental locations that do not prominently display and make available written materials about extended coverage and without providing evidence of purchased coverage. The act allows salaried and trained employees of a licensee to issue extended rental car coverage under supervision.
