Broadened
Broadened personal injury protection, also known as named individuals broadened personal injury protection, is an additional level of personal injury protection. It protects those, other than the insured, who may from time to time drive the insured automobile, such as employees or family members.
Considerations
Consult your insurance agent to determine whether broadened personal injury protection is necessary, if it is available in your particular jurisdiction and how much the additional coverage costs. Details will vary, depending on the jurisdiction.
