CODE OF VIRGINIA

COMMISSION TO ESTABLISH GUIDELINES FOR FILING READABLE MOTOR VEHICLE INSURANCE
POLICY FORMS (§ 38.2-2224)

The Commission may establish guidelines for the filing of simplified and
readable motor vehicle insurance policy forms that are acceptable for issuance.
Notwithstanding the provisions of §§ 38.2-2218 through 38.2-2223, an insurer
may issue a motor vehicle insurance policy that deviates in language, but not in
substance or coverage, from the standard policy form provided for in §§
38.2-2218 through 38.2-2223, if the deviating policy form is (i) in no respect
less favorable to the insured than the standard form, and (ii) approved by the
Commission prior to issuance.

HISTORY: 1977, c. 255, § 38.1-387.1; 1981, c. 172; 1986, c. 562.
