Massachusetts Auto Reform - Starting on April 1 2008 Massachusetts entered a new phase of "managed competition" for personal auto insurance.  This means that every insurer has the opportunity to set its own rates (subject to the limits set by the Insurance Commissioner).  In addition, each auto insurer can now provide unique enhancements to the auto policy.  Consult with your independent agent to find out more.
