WASHINGTON–State insurance legislators promised on Sunday to look into incorporating stronger sanctions into laws and rules governing airbag theft and fraud.
The Property-Casualty Insurance Committee of the National Conference of Insurance Legislators agreed to look into the issue at the request of the Coalition Against Insurance Fraud.
The P-C panel acted after Howard Goldblatt, director of government affairs for the CAIF cited data indicating that airbag theft and fraud continues “to be a big problem and a public safety issue, both for the consumer and the insurer.”
