Minimum Coverage Requirements in Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania operates under a tort liability system with a choice no-fault option, meaning drivers select between full tort (unlimited right to sue) or limited tort (restricted lawsuit rights in exchange for lower premiums). The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation requires proof of financial responsibility at registration and following any lapse. Unlike most states, Pennsylvania mandates first-party medical benefits regardless of tort selection, adding to base premium costs but providing immediate medical coverage.

Bodily Injury Liability

Covers injuries you cause to others in an at-fault accident.

Property Damage Liability

Covers damage you cause to another person's vehicle or property.

First-Party Medical Benefits

Pennsylvania mandates medical benefits coverage that pays your own medical bills after an accident regardless of fault, separate from your health insurance.

Uninsured Motorist Coverage

Covers your injuries when hit by a driver with no insurance or a hit-and-run driver. Pennsylvania law requires carriers to offer this at limits matching your bodily injury liability, and it is automatically added unless you reject it in writing at policy inception — verbal rejection does not count.

Comprehensive and Collision

Comprehensive covers non-collision events like theft, weather, and animal strikes; collision covers damage from accidents regardless of fault. Pennsylvania has high deer collision rates in rural counties, making comprehensive worth keeping even on older vehicles in areas like Centre, Bradford, and Potter counties.
