The Florida Senate

An insurer may not deny an application for automobile liability insurance or impose a surcharge or otherwise increase the premium rate for an automobile liability policy solely on the basis that the applicant, a named insured, a member of the insured’s household, or a person who customarily operates the insured’s vehicle is a volunteer driver.

As used in this section, the term “volunteer driver” means a person who provides services, including transporting individuals or goods, without compensation in excess of expenses to a private nonprofit agency as defined in s. 273.01(3) or a charitable organization as defined in s. 736.1201(1).

This section does not prohibit an insurer from refusing to renew, imposing a surcharge on, or otherwise increasing the premium rate for an automobile liability insurance policy based upon factors other than the volunteer status of the persons named in this subsection.
