If you’re a driver in Florida, it’s important to be aware of its auto insurance requirements. Like some states, [Florida requires drivers](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/do-you-need-car-insurance-in-florida/) to carry personal injury protection insurance and property damage liability insurance. In addition, there are several other types of coverage that are recommended or required by law.

Contact The Fran Haasch Law Group today for a free case evaluation if you feel you have been the [victim of a car accident](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/) through no fault of your own and have questions about what is covered under your policies.

## Florida Car Insurance Laws

Florida drivers must have two types of minimum coverage car insurance options:

### Personal Injury Protection Insurance (PIP)

Floridians must have at least $10,000 of [personal injury protection](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/what-is-personal-injury-protection-insurance/) (PIP) coverage to cover 80% of their medical bills and 60% of lost wages if they are hurt in an accident. This will also cover up to $5,000 in death benefits regardless of who was at fault for the crash. 

[PIP](https://www.lawfran.com/blog/2022/05/florida-pip-insurance-limits-making-a-claim-to-only-14-days/) will pay for:

* [Medical expenses](https://www.lawfran.com/blog/2022/05/im-receiving-medical-bills-in-the-mail-what-should-i-do-with-them/) (including all medical services such as ambulatory services, hospitalization, rehabilitation, and prosthetics)
* [Lost wages](https://www.lawfran.com/blog/2022/05/how-do-i-get-reimbursed-for-lost-wages-and-medical-expenses-after-an-auto-accident/)
* Other necessary expenses (mileage to and from medical appointments)

### Property Damage Liability Insurance (PDL)

You must carry at least $10,000 in [PDL coverage](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/property-damage-liability-insurance/) to protect you if you damage someone else’s property in an accident. This coverage may include damage to another vehicle, fence, tree, mailbox, road sign, or building. 

## Are Florida’s Requirements Considered Full Coverage?

No, minimum [car insurance in Florida](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/what-is-full-coverage-auto-insurance-in-florida/) offers drivers the lowest protection required by the law to obtain a driver’s license. If you want more car insurance coverage, your best option may be to add on additional coverages to supplement your current policy.

## Other Auto Insurance Coverage Options

![](https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/DdzhhwZi-BYQENQH-AmVpX9qy2lrvY3ibD2hOV09iZ37J4Dx8fSoneG5ykwLsUkOELusIbIkKFPn56PfBKlrp0uRnxt5lAMKD_8yKK9Lvr89LcxK1bG7c2JOfQKq5IRCJEstbnT5aGx4T_W6)

Adding these coverages to your policy may [increase your car insurance premiums](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/why-is-car-insurance-so-expensive/). However, they are beneficial in limiting your out-of-pocket costs in the event of an accident.

### Bodily Injury Liability Coverage

[Bodily Injury Liability Coverage](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/bodily-injury-liability-coverage/) helps pay for medical expenses and lost wages if you’re responsible for injuring someone else in a motor vehicle accident.

### Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Coverage

**Florida does not require drivers** to carry [uninsured/underinsured](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/underinsured-uninsured-motorists/) Motorist Coverage, [but it is recommended](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/underinsured-uninsured-motorists/). This type of coverage protects you if you’re involved in an accident with a driver who is underinsured or has no insurance at all.

### Collision Insurance Coverage

[Collision Coverage](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/collision-insurance/) helps pay to repair or replace your vehicle if damaged in an accident.

### Comprehensive Insurance Coverage

[Comprehensive Coverage](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/what-is-comprehensive-insurance/) helps pay to repair or replace your vehicle if it’s damaged by a covered event like theft or vandalism.

### Medical Payment Coverage or Medpay

Most auto insurance providers offer an additional coverage option for your medical expenses if you’re injured in a car accident. [Medpay](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/medical-payments-coverage-medpay/) is often used to supplement health insurance or PIP coverage.

## Can I Sue For Damages After a Car Accident in Florida?

Yes. [You can sue for damages](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/suing-after-a-car-accident-in-florida/) if you’ve been injured in a car accident in Florida. However, it’s important to note that [Florida is a no-fault state](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/is-florida-a-no-fault-state/). This means that your own insurance company will pay for your medical expenses and lost wages, regardless of who is at fault for the accident. You can only sue if your injuries meet a certain threshold in which:

* Your damages exceed the limit of your PIP coverage, or
* You suffered permanent injury

## What Should I Do After a Car Accident in Florida?

If you’ve [been involved in a car accident](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/what-to-do-after-accident/) in Florida, you should [first call the police](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/why-you-should-file-a-police-report/). Once the police have arrived and [filed an accident report](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/how-do-i-look-up-an-accident-report-in-florida/), you should exchange information with the other driver. This includes your name, contact information, insurance company, and policy number.

You should also take pictures of the accident scene and any damages to your vehicle. If there are any witnesses, you should get their contact information.

If you’ve been injured in the accident, you should [seek medical attention](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/should-i-see-a-doctor-after-an-accident/) as soon as possible. Once you’ve received treatment, you should [notify your insurance company](https://www.lawfran.com/blog/2018/12/what-happens-when-you-make-a-claim-after-a-car-accident/) about the accident.

## Should I Hire a Lawyer After a Car Accident in Florida?

If you’ve been injured in a car accident, you may want to [hire a lawyer](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/should-i-get-a-lawyer/). A lawyer can help you [navigate the legal process](https://www.lawfran.com/personal-injury-claim-process-in-florida/) and ensure that your rights are protected.

You may also want to hire a lawyer if the other driver was at fault for the accident and you’re having trouble getting the insurance company to pay for your damages.

If you’ve been involved in a car accident, contact an experienced car accident lawyer in Florida to discuss your legal options.

## What is the Statute of Limitations for Filing a Car Accident Lawsuit in Florida?

The [statute of limitations](https://www.lawfran.com/florida-personal-injury-statute-of-limitations/) for settling a claim or filing a car accident lawsuit in Florida is [two years from the accident date](https://www.lawfran.com/car-accident-lawyers/how-long-after-an-accident-can-you-file-a-claim-in-florida/).
