State Requirements

Florida operates under a no-fault insurance system, one of only two states remaining with this structure after Michigan's 2020 reform. The state requires electronic proof of insurance verification through the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles database, and insurers must report policy lapses within 15 days.

Personal Injury Protection (PIP)

Florida's no-fault system requires PIP to be your first claim even if the other driver caused the crash.

Property Damage Liability

Pays for damage you cause to another driver's vehicle or property, such as fences, buildings, or road infrastructure. Florida does not require bodily injury liability unless you've been convicted of certain violations, making it one of only two states with this gap in mandatory coverage.

Bodily Injury Liability

Covers injuries you cause to other drivers, passengers, or pedestrians, including medical bills, lost income, and legal fees if you're sued.
