Except as provided in section (2) of this rule, the notice shall be in bold face type of not less than 12-point with a lower case unspaced alphabet length of not less than 120-point, or of not less than 10-point if the notice is in a contrasting color, and shall state:(2)
An insurer may satisfy the notice requirement under section (1) of this rule by use of a notice provision that substantially complies with the notice provision set forth in section (1) of this rule, if the alternative notice provision is approved by the Director prior to use.(3)
For purposes of this rule, a policy is a motor vehicle physical damage only policy if it insures solely against the loss of or damage to any motor vehicle designed primarily for use upon a highway.(4)
The notice requirement under this rule may be met by the attachment of a sticker or by a stamp that contains the required warning. Other devices that contain the required warning may be used if approved by the Director prior to use.(5)
The insurance producer selling the coverage to which this rule applies shall require the purchaser of the coverage to sign a receipt acknowledging that the purchaser has read and understands the warning required under section (1) of this rule. The receipt shall be retained by the insurance producer or insurer until the end of the sixth month after the termination date of the coverage to which the receipt applies.(6)
This rule applies to motor vehicle physical damage only policies on individually owned private passenger vehicles including pickup and panel trucks and station wagons that are not used as a public or livery conveyance for passengers or rented to others, and does not apply to motor vehicle physical damage only policies on commercial fleets.
