Minimum Coverage Requirements in Minnesota

Minnesota operates as a no-fault state, which means your own Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage pays your medical bills regardless of who caused the accident. Minnesota also mandates uninsured motorist coverage at the same limits as your liability coverage unless you reject it in writing.

Liability Insurance

Covers injury and property damage you cause to others in an at-fault accident. Senior drivers on fixed income should consider at least 100/300/100 to protect retirement assets from lawsuit judgments.

Personal Injury Protection (PIP)

Pays your medical bills and lost wages regardless of fault in an accident.

Uninsured Motorist Coverage

Protects you when hit by a driver with no insurance or insufficient coverage. Minnesota automatically includes uninsured motorist bodily injury at the same limits as your liability coverage unless you reject it in writing—verbal rejection at policy purchase does not count.

Underinsured Motorist Coverage

Covers the gap when the at-fault driver's liability limits are insufficient to pay your damages. Minnesota does not require underinsured motorist coverage, but it is often bundled with uninsured motorist at minimal additional cost. For seniors with significant medical expenses, underinsured coverage at 100/300 limits protects against drivers carrying only the state minimum.

Comprehensive Coverage

Covers non-collision damage to your vehicle—theft, hail, deer strikes, vandalism. Minnesota's harsh winters and rural areas create elevated comprehensive claims for ice damage and animal collisions.
