Arizona Automobile Liability Insurance Law–Beyond Mayflower

Abstract

The 1968 decision of the Arizona Supreme Court in Jenkins v. Mayflower Insurance Exchange commenced a new era of automobile insurance law in Arizona. In Mayflower, the court held the omnibus clause prescribed in the Financial Responsibility Act is a part of every motor vehicle liability policy. The effect was to invalidate a restrictive endorsement in the policy negating coverage if the automobile was operated by a member of the armed forces. In the same year, this writer queried whether every automobile liability policy had to conform to all the special requirements which the Act establishes.

The purpose of this article is to examine the various Arizona appellate and federal decisions rendered since Mayflower in an effort to clarify, as much as possible, the law in Arizona relating to automobile liability insurance.
