New York Post – June 1, 2011
Bronx drivers pay a state-high $723 a year in no-fault premiums, which cover the personal-injury portion of auto-insurance bills. That's more than three times the state average of $202, figures show. Brooklyn motorists also get socked, to the tune of $554, and the citywide average is a hefty $491. Thanks to abuse of the state's no-fault system, this amounts to a $200 million-a-year "fraud tax" for New York drivers, according to the district attorneys of the five boroughs and Nassau County, who yesterday joined the Fraud Costs New York coalition promoting reform.
