About one in every four North Carolinians is covered through the massive N.C. Reinsurance Facility for risky drivers. That risk pool is larger than any similar mechanism anywhere else in America.
The facility regularly loses money, and state law allows the participating auto-insurance companies to recover the facility's losses from all insurance clients, not just those who are risky drivers.

An employee involved in an auto accident while riding in a company vehicle was lawfully excluded from collecting benefits under the company's uninsured motorist coverage, the Oklahoma Court of Civil Appeals ruled last week.
Because the worker had auto insurance on his own personal vehicle, he was excluded from the company's uninsured motorist coverage under a provision written into the employer's policy. Though the worker charged that the exception violates the legislative intent of the law requiring employers to ensure company vehicles, the court found that parties to insurance contracts are free to write those contracts as they see fit.
