Summary

Personal injury and wrongful death actions; disclosure of address of insured person. Requires an insurance company to disclose the address of an alleged tortfeasor upon request of an injured person, personal representative, or attorney in a cause of action for personal injury or wrongful death due to a motor vehicle accident, if such address has not previously been disclosed. The bill also provides that if the alleged tortfeasor has insurance coverage from a self-insured locality for a motor vehicle accident and the locality is authorized by the alleged tortfeasor to accept service of process, the locality may instead disclose the insured's work address and the name and address of the person who shall accept service of process on behalf of the alleged tortfeasor.
