Does it exempt Muslims?

It does not name any religion but allows people to opt out on the basis of religious beliefs. Islam is against gambling and if you personally knew any Muslims, you would know how much angst they go through when it comes to auto insurance. There are some Sharia Compliant insurance companies which do some juggling around of the money to technically avoid the Islamic definition of gambling.

So, yes, Muslims would fall in that category.
