Cal. Ins. Code § 12156
Insurance service is the selling or giving, with a service contract or as a result of membership in or affiliation with a motor club, of a policy of insurance covering liability or loss by the holder resulting from injury or damage to person or property arising out of an accident, such liability or loss being the consequence of the ownership, maintenance, operation, or use of a motor vehicle.
Insurance service also includes the selling or giving with a service contract or as a result of membership in or affiliation with a motor club, of a policy of insurance, or a certificate under a master policy in which the club is the master policyholder, covering the club member, or any member of his family, for loss, other than loss of time, from accidental injury from any cause or accidental death from any cause. For such purpose any certificated motor club is deemed to be an "association" within the meaning of Section 10270.5 and the club members and members of their families are deemed to be members of such association.
