In Florida, the no-fault auto insurance law has been in place since 1972. This law requires a driver to carry Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage as part of their auto insurance. The PIP coverage covers the insured person’s bills irrespective of the party at fault in an accident. This means that your insurance coverage pays the medical bills and other financial losses up to the policy limits in case of an accident.

No matter where you live in Florida, it’s possible that you see people riding motorcycles throughout the rural roads and towns. While this is a fun and fulfilling experience, a motorcycle can prove fatal when you get involved in a crash mainly because they lack the safety features that one enjoys while driving in a vehicle. Most motorcyclists are well aware of this reality and often take all measures to avoid accidents. Sadly, motorcycle crashes still happen, and Florida records some of the country’s highest number of motorcycle accidents.
