Gregory, Justice,
concurring specially.
We hold in the majority opinion that Mr. Drexler responded to a pre-no-fault act offer which met the requirements of OCGA § 33-34-5 (c) as enunciated in Wiard v. Phoenix Ins. Co., 251 Ga. 698 (310 SE2d 221) (1983). While I agree that a pre-no-fault act offer which meets these requirements is an adequate offer, I would not be willing to hold that an offer which does not meet these requirements would in every case be insufficient. The no-fault statute spells out no particular requirements for a pre-no-fault act offer except that it must be “an offer to accept or reject the optional coverages required to be offered by this chapter. . . .” OCGA § 33-34-5 (c).
