Summary
Makes various changes to the law concerning: (1) confidentiality and disclosures of insurer information related to examinations; (2) insurance producer licensing; (3) notice of foreclosure to residential property insurers; and (4) passenger coverage under motor vehicle insurance policies. Provides that a towing service that provides professional towing services shall release a passenger motor vehicle to the owner or a representative of the owner upon the receipt of the towing service of certain documentation concerning the charges and the ownership of the vehicle.

Establishes licensure requirements for independent adjusters.
