A30 days
90 days
C60 days
D180 days

Why this is the answer

Under N.J.S.A. 17:29C, the first 90 days of a new private passenger auto policy is the underwriting window during which the insurer may cancel for any lawful underwriting reason on proper notice. After 90 days, mid-term cancellation is restricted to enumerated statutory grounds.
