Monday, July 30th, 2007 — Ohio lawmakers are considering an increase the minimum amount of coverage motorists can carry, a move contested by insurance groups. “You would think we would be in favor of higher rates because we would expect to collect more. But were not supportive of any increase,” said Mary Bonelli, senior vice president of public information at the Ohio Insurance Institute. “The fact is, keeping the state minimum down provides more opportunities to insure more people.”
