The encyclopedia does not need an article about motorists' insurance requirements in every state and country of the world. This is not encyclopedic material. PROD was removed, without comment, by original editor. PamD 21:23, 10 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

- I think the article is very relevant material. Throughout my 17 years of experience in the insurance industry, I have found that a lot of people have questions, and need more information on the auto insurance requirements in Georgia. The state of Georgia has a population of almost 10 million people. Each state has different liability limit requirements. Some states require Personal Injury Protection (Georgia does not), not all states have an insurance database,states have different fees and fines for not having insurance. Another unique aspect of auto insurance in Georgia is the Uninsured Motorist option (Added On vs. Reduced). There is also a wikipedia page on on the Georgia Electronic Insurance Compliance System and the Georgia General Assembly. I'm new to wikipedia, but I think that this topic will resonate with many people looking for information on auto insurance in Georgia. I definitely don't think the article should be deleted. It should be given time to be improved, because it provides useful information. There are also mulitple Georgia government websites, some I've reference in the article, that explains how auto insurance Georgia laws are different than other states. If all the rules and regulations were uniform from state to state, there would no need for state Insurance Commissioner offices in every state.--Laemiracles (talk) 19:30, 11 August 2012 (UTC) — Laemiracles (talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

- Rename to Motor insurance requirements in Georgia (U.S. State). As this appears not to be a matter where the law is the same in all 50 states, and article is justified. However, I prefer "motor" to "car" to include other road vehicles. "Georgia" is ambiguous as it also refers to a nation in the Caucasus. No doubt other articles on the law of other states will follow. Peterkingiron (talk) 14:31, 12 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Move/Merge to "Motor insurance requirements in the United States#Georgia". One article per nation is enough. It is at least IMO, and eliminates the "Georgia" ambiguity. - ¡Ouch! (hurt me / more pain) 12:14, 13 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, don't merge anywhere. This is totally not encyclopedic material. If people want to know the insurance or other regulations for a given state, they should go to that state's website, not to an international encyclopedia. As far as I could tell, there are no comparable articles for any other state or country. --MelanieN (talk) 02:04, 17 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
