Section 12935
Status: in_force

(a) The commissioner, by January 1, 1997, shall develop and make available to the general public, in the two most common non-English languages spoken in the state, which are Spanish and Vietnamese, informational sheets that provide a general explanation in those languages, of the terms most commonly used in passenger automobile and pickup truck liability insurance policies.

(b) These informational sheets are intended to provide only the general explanation of these insurance terms, and in the case of a dispute between an insurer and an insured, the policy as written in English will prevail. The development of informational sheets or the use of these informational sheets by insureds, insurers, agents, brokers, or the state shall not be interpreted as creating a duty or obligation to provide additional information or insurance policies in a non-English language.

(c) An informational sheet developed by the commissioner shall include a disclaimer, prominently displayed in 24-point type print at the beginning of the informational sheet, in the non-English language, that contains all of the following information:

(1) The informational sheet is for informational purposes only.

(2) The actual terms of an insurance policy prevail over the information provided in the informational sheet.

(3) In the case of a dispute, the insurance policy is controlling and a court will rely on the policy as it is written in English to resolve the dispute.

(4) The policy is the sole source of rights and obligations of the insurer and the insured.

(5) The information contained in the informational sheets does not create rights or obligations on the part of the insured, the insurer, the agent, the broker, or the state.

(6) The informational sheet is not intended to be a substitute for the actual policy written in English.

(d) The commissioner may develop informational sheets regarding other forms of insurance.

(e) The commissioner may develop informational sheets in foreign languages, other than Spanish and Vietnamese, as needed.

(f) Once developed by the commissioner, he or she may produce public service announcements concerning the availability of these informational sheets, to be utilized in those communities that the commissioner deems would benefit from the information.

(g) This section does not prevent an insurer or licensee from advertising an insurance policy, or the availability of a foreign language informational sheet, or the availability of a translation of an insurance policy, in a language other than English if the advertisement clearly states that the insurance policy is only available in English. However, in the case of a dispute, the insurance policy is controlling and any of those advertisements for insurance policies, informational sheets, or translations shall not be construed to modify or change the insurance policy.
