Minimum Coverage Requirements in Florida

Florida is a no-fault state, meaning your own Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage pays your medical bills regardless of who caused the accident. Florida law requires proof of insurance at registration, traffic stops, and after any accident.

Personal Injury Protection (PIP)

PIP covers your medical bills and lost wages after an accident, regardless of fault. For seniors on fixed income, consider higher PIP limits or a Medicare coordination rider to avoid surprise gaps.

Property Damage Liability

This covers damage your vehicle causes to another person's car or property. Seniors driving paid-off vehicles may be judgment-proof for personal assets, but 25/50/25 limits provide stronger protection.

Bodily Injury Liability

Florida does not require bodily injury liability for clean-record drivers, but it covers medical bills and legal costs if you injure someone in an at-fault accident. Without it, you're personally liable — and Florida courts can garnish Social Security income above federal exempt amounts.

Uninsured Motorist Coverage

Uninsured motorist coverage protects you if you're hit by a driver with no insurance or insufficient limits. Florida law requires your insurer to offer this at the same limits as your bodily injury liability; you must reject it in writing at policy inception or it's automatically added.

Collision and Comprehensive

Collision covers damage to your vehicle in an at-fault accident; comprehensive covers theft, weather, vandalism, and animal strikes. Many Florida seniors over age 70 drop collision and bank the premium savings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Florida require bodily injury liability for senior drivers?

Florida does not require bodily injury liability for clean-record drivers of any age, but it becomes mandatory after a DUI, at-fault accident with injuries, or multiple violations. Seniors without bodily injury coverage are personally liable for medical bills and legal costs in at-fault accidents — and Florida courts can garnish Social Security income above federal exempt limits.
