[QUOTE="Smit-Dog, post: 593592, member: 25436"] Well, I just got off the phone with Jack Tillotson of the MCCA. They have reviewed my complaint and the wording of the MCCA law, and like the rest of us, realize how contradictory and vague the law is regarding the surcharge on non-street legal dirt bikes. According to Jack, it is the MCCA's official position that insurance companies [b]should not[/b] be charging the MCCA fee on dirt bikes that are not licensed for the street. The issue now for the MCCA department, however, is how to enforce their policy/position, and determine what governing body has the authority to enforce correct application of the MCCA according to the law. An officer from the OFIS sits on the MCCA Board. They are going to meet soon to discuss publishing a ruling from the OFIS that would help clarify the wording of the current law, and possibly get the wording changed/amended so that insurance companies do not have the leeway they currently do in interpreting and applying the MCCA law. I also found out that the MCCA [b]does not[/b] get a detailed breakdown of MCCA fees collected by insurance companies. They merely accept, at face value, whatever fees are sent in. If there are enough complaints, the OFIS does have a group that audits insurance companies to ensure proper reporting of MCCA (among auditing many other things). Considering the lack of detailed reporting of the MCCA fees, it is conceivable that not all MCCA fees collected by insurance companies are actually passed on. I'm not suggesting outright fraud, but ([i]cough, cough "Enron", cough cough "WorldCom"[/i]) there isn't any oversight in place to ensure otherwise. The way it was left with Jack at the MCCA is that they will be getting together with the OFIS to clarify and resolve this issue. Hopefully there will be a positive outcome from all this before my next premium comes due! [/QUOTE]
