Hill, Chief Justice,concurring.
I concur in the judgment for the reasons stated in Carter v. Banks, 254 Ga. 550 (330 SE2d 866) (1985). In addition I note that the *556record in this case shows that, in applying for insurance, the insured expressly rejected optional PIP, collision and loss of use coverage. See Ga. L. 1974, pp. 113, 118; now OCGA § 33-34-5 (a). Nevertheless, the insured had, and was paid pursuant to, pre-no-fault collision coverage.
Decided June 19, 1984.
