- Proposal would allow drivers to trade personal data for potentially lower insurance rates
AB 311, a California bill proposed by Tina McKinnor, would allow drivers to opt into telematics tracking for potential insurance discounts, facing opposition over privacy concerns while supporters argue it could improve road safety. The bill would let insurance companies use data like location and driving behavior when setting rates for those who choose to be tracked, making California the only state not allowing this practice.
