Unique Aspects of Florida Accident Laws

Each state has their own laws regarding car accidents. Some unique Florida accident laws you should be aware of include:

• If you are involved in a car crash you have four years from the injury date to file a personal injury claim.
• If your car crash resulted in a fatality, you have a maximum of two years to file a wrongful death claim.
• The least amount of insurance coverage you can carry is $10,000 in PIP (personal injury protection) and $10,000 in property damage liability.
• Many drivers are not obligated to purchase bodily injury liability insurance.
• A no fault insurance plan offers ten thousand dollars in PIP that will cover medical expenses and lost salary regardless of who was at fault for the accident. In return for this PIP coverage, you will not be able to receive any damages for loss of enjoyment of  life, pain or suffering.
• If your claim is less than $15,000 you can file your claim in the county court. For claims that exceed $15,000 you will file your claim in circuit court.
