It does actually redact the requirement of a $10,000 minimum. It has always been a requirement to have "medical benefits for injuries incurred as a result of an accident while operating or riding on a motorcycle."

The proposed changes are underlined and crossed out. http://www.legis.state.tx.us/tlodocs...l/SB01967I.htm
