Grid Guidance

The grid rating program was developed to establish the maximum rate that insurance companies can charge for basic coverage third-party liability (bodily injury & property damage tort), accident benefits, and direct compensation property damage (DCPD). Insurance companies must compare a driver's rate under their current rating program to a driver's rate calculated by the grid and charge the lesser of the two rates.

The resources below are guides for insurance companies when calculating grid steps.
