The Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles, Division of Driver Licenses has issued an advisory to Florida property and casualty insurers regarding an identified glitch relating to the electronic addition of vehicles to insurance policies that do not currently exist in the Division's database. The advisory follows:
Effective immediately, vehicles being added to policies that do not currently exist on our database are being returned as a policy number error. This error will be returned to you and new procedures will require you to report to us the initiation of insurance transaction type '20′ for that policy number.
The vehicle add, transaction type '31′, is currently being returned as an error indicating a '1′ in card column 326, located in the Edit Mask. When this is the only error in the Edit Mask, this indicates that the policy number could not be found on our database. However, we are adding these policies to our database with the vehicle information and the vehicle add date, but without an effective date of the policy.
