Georgia legislature passes Senate Bill 426, limiting direct lawsuits against insurance companies in trucking crashes.
Georgia's legislature has passed Senate Bill 426, which would limit direct lawsuits against insurance companies following trucking crashes. The bill states that someone can only sue an insurance company directly if the trucking company involved has gone bankrupt or if the plaintiff can't find the company or driver. Supporters argue that this change would lower insurance rates for truckers, currently inhibiting trucking companies' ability to do business.
