under the policy, the insurer shall in lieu of cancellation,
nonrenewal, or premium increase offer to continue or renew the
insurance, but to exclude from coverage, by name, the person or
persons whose claim experience or driving record would have
justified the cancellation or nonrenewal. The premiums charged on
any such policy excluding a named driver or drivers shall not
reflect the claims experience or driving record of the excluded
named driver or drivers.

(B) IN ANY CASE WHERE AN INSURER COULD LEGALLY REFUSE TO
ISSUE A POLICY OF AUTOMOBILE LIABILITY INSURANCE UNDER WHICH MORE
THAN 1 PERSON IS INSURED BECAUSE OF THE CLAIM EXPERIENCE OR
DRIVING RECORD OF 1 OR MORE BUT LESS THAN ALL OF THE PERSONS
APPLYING TO BE INSURED UNDER THE POLICY, THE INSURER MAY ISSUE
THE POLICY BUT EXCLUDE FROM COVERAGE, BY NAME, THE PERSON OR
PERSONS WHOSE CLAIM EXPERIENCE OR DRIVING RECORD COULD HAVE
JUSTIFIED THE REFUSAL TO ISSUE. THE PREMIUMS CHARGED ON ANY SUCH
POLICY EXCLUDING A NAMED DRIVER OR DRIVERS MAY NOT REFLECT THE
CLAIMS EXPERIENCE OR DRIVING RECORD OF THE EXCLUDED NAME DRIVER
OR DRIVERS.

[(b)] (C) With respect to any person excluded from coverage
under this section, the policy may provide that the insurer
[shall] MAY not be HELD liable for damages, losses, or claims
arising out of the operation or use of the insured motor vehicle,
whether or not [such] THAT operation or use was with the express
or implied permission of a person insured under the policy.

SECTION 2. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That this Act shall
take effect July 1, 1984.
