NEW HAMPSHIRE AUTHORITY LIBRARY
New Hampshire Auto Insurance & Crash Law Case Authority Library
This issue-organized authority index collects primary New Hampshire statutes and leading Supreme Court decisions for automobile insurance and crash-law research.
Core New Hampshire Statutes
- RSA 264:2 — proof of financial responsibility and minimum 25/50/25 limits when financial responsibility is required.
- RSA 264:15 — uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage and required policy provisions.
- RSA 507:7-d — modified comparative fault.
- RSA 508:4 — general three-year personal-action limitation period.
Leading New Hampshire Decisions
- Green Mountain Insurance Co. v. Bonney, 131 N.H. 762 (1989) — UM coverage equal to liability coverage and limits on anti-stacking provisions.
- Cacavas v. Maine Bonding & Casualty Co., 128 N.H. 204 (1986) — intra-policy stacking and enforceability of clear policy limitations.
New Hampshire does not generally require every vehicle owner to carry liability insurance, but financial-responsibility and policy statutes become critical after specified events and whenever insurance is issued. Check current RSA text, Insurance Department materials, later citing decisions and the actual policy forms.
