The commissioner may declare any region of the state as an auto insurance fraud crisis area upon making a finding that auto insurance fraud is endemic to the area. That declaration of an auto insurance fraud crisis area shall be in effect for not more than two years, unless extended or renewed by the commissioner. Auto insurance fraud is endemic to an area if the commissioner determines that organized automobile fraud activity exists in the area and contributes significantly to the cost of automobile insurance in that area.
