A. Insurers that write automobile insurance in Oklahoma may exclude any and all coverage afforded under the owner's insurance policy for any loss or injury that occurs while a transportation network company driver is logged on to a TNC's digital network or while a driver provides a prearranged ride. This right to exclude all coverage may apply to any coverage included in an automobile insurance policy including, but not limited to: 1. Liability coverage for bodily injury and property damage; 2. Uninsured and underinsured motorist coverage; 3. Medical payments coverage; 4. Comprehensive physical damage coverage; and 5. Collision physical damage coverage. B. Such exclusions shall apply notwithstanding any requirement under Chapter 7 of the Oklahoma Highway Safety Code of Section 7-101 et seq. of Title 47 of the Oklahoma Statutes. Nothing in this section implies or requires that a personal automobile insurance policy provide coverage while the TNC driver is logged on to the TNC's digital network, while the TNC driver is engaged in a prearranged ride or while the driver otherwise uses a vehicle to transport passengers for compensation. Nothing shall be deemed to preclude an insurer from providing coverage for the TNC driver's vehicle, if it chooses to do so by contract or endorsement. C. Automobile insurers that exclude coverage as permitted in Section 16 of this act shall have no duty to defend or indemnify any claim expressly excluded thereunder. Nothing in this article shall be deemed to invalidate or limit an exclusion contained in a policy already in use or approved for use in this state prior to the enactment of this act that excludes coverage for vehicles used to carry persons or property for a charge or available for hire by the public. An automobile insurer that defends or indemnifies a claim against a TNC driver that is excluded under the terms of its policy shall have a right of contribution against other insurers that provide automobile insurance to the same TNC driver in satisfaction of the coverage requirements of Section 16 of this act at the time of loss. D. In a claims coverage investigation, TNCs and any insurer potentially providing coverage under Section 16 of this act shall cooperate to facilitate the exchange of relevant information with directly involved parties and any insurer of the TNC driver if applicable, including the precise times that a TNC driver logged on and off of the TNC's digital network in the twelve-hour period immediately preceding and in the twelve-hour period immediately following the accident and disclose to one another a clear description of the coverage, exclusions and limits provided under any automobile insurance maintained under Section 16 of this act.
