What the no-fault law requires
Under Florida's no-fault system your own PIP coverage pays your medical bills after a crash no matter who was at fault. The state requires two coverages on every registered vehicle:
- Personal Injury Protection (PIP) — $10,000
- Property Damage Liability (PDL) — $10,000
What no-fault does not cover
PIP pays a percentage of your medical costs up to the limit and nothing toward another driver's injuries. Bodily injury liability is a separate coverage, and Florida only forces you to carry it once a filing is ordered against your license.
When a filing changes your minimums
A suspension for driving without insurance or too many points brings an SR-22 filing. A DUI brings an FR-44 at 100/300/50 limits — ten times the no-fault property damage requirement. Both must stay continuously in force.
