Florida, unlike California and Arizona which are "tort" states, is a partial no fault state. What exactly does that mean? The "no-fault" aspect only relates to "bodily Injury", therefore in the event of a car accident all parties involved are ultimately responsible for their own medical costs and other bills that may follow on from the original injury. The right to sue in this state is limited.
Regulations, regarding auto insurance in Florida, make it mandatory for a vehicle driver to be covered by both a personal injury protection policy and a property damage liability policy.

Injuries you cause to others comes out at a minimum of $10 000 per person $20 000 total

How are auto insurance rates and quotes determined by Florida companies? The estimated cost of covering all drivers (that includes possible legal fees) is divided by the total number of drivers. The behavior of the state's drivers therefore set the premiums. Drivers are then grouped according to level of risk whereby high risk drivers will be required to pay a higher premium than those that are at a lower risk. The formula used to calculate individual rates is exclusive to each company therefore it is recommended that you dig around before deciding.
