A bill aimed at squelching the California insurance commissioner's proposal to restrict use of geographic data in setting driver's auto insurance rates was approved by a legislative panel yesterday.
State Assembly Insurance Committee members voted 7-2 for AB 2840, which would require a statewide study to be conducted before any changes are made to the process for calculating auto coverage premiums.
The measure, which was authored by Assemblyman John Benoit, R-Palm Desert, along with Joe Canciamilla, D-Pittsburg, Nicole Parra, D-Hanford, Doug LaMalfa, R-Richvale, and Lois Wolk, D-Davis, now moves to the Assembly Appropriations Committee.
