| Recent Questions | Can I get an EMT discount with Nationwide? To my knowledge, Nationwide does offer discounts to EMT but I'm not 100% if there are any specifics to the state of California. Because car insurance is regulated at the state, there could be some implications regarding California's state legislator that would prohibit employment status being considered. What's the ADOT code for NationwideThe ADOT code for Nationwide would be listed on your policy documents. But for Nationwide, it is 0014.
