§6781 Standard of Regulation for Motor Vehicle Rentals

Summary

For the three-year period beginning on November 12, 1999, it is assumed that states do not have the power to require licenses, appointments, or training for people who ask customers to buy or who sell insurance that is tied to renting or leasing a motor vehicle. That presumption can be limited by the exceptions below. This does not change any state law, the future effect of court decisions about state law, or the future effect of final state rules, orders, bulletins, or similar official actions that by their terms specifically regulate or exempt people who sell insurance for short-term car rentals. The rule applies to vehicle rentals or leases of 90 consecutive days or less, and to insurance that lasts no longer than the rental. "Motor vehicle" has the meaning given in section 13102 of title 49.
