Michigan has some unique auto insurance laws that drivers should understand to ensure they are adequately covered and comply with state regulations. The state operates under a no-fault insurance system, meaning that after an accident, each driver’s own insurance company covers their medical bills and other related expenses, regardless of who was at fault. This system was designed to reduce the need for lawsuits and speed up the claims process, but it also comes with specific requirements.

Key Aspects of Michigan’s Auto Insurance Laws

1. Personal Injury Protection (PIP): In Michigan, all drivers must carry Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage, which covers medical expenses, lost wages, and other accident-related costs. In the past, Michigan had unlimited PIP coverage, but in 2019, a law was passed that allows drivers to choose from several PIP coverage levels—ranging from unlimited to a lower option that covers a set amount for medical expenses.
2. Liability Coverage: Michigan also requires drivers to have liability insurance. This includes coverage for bodily injury and property damage in the event you're at fault in an accident. The minimum required limits are:
   • $50,000 for bodily injury to one person
   • $100,000 for bodily injury to all people in a single accident
   • $10,000 for property damage
3. Uninsured and Underinsured Motorist Coverage: While not mandatory, this coverage is highly recommended. It helps protect you if you're involved in an accident with a driver who doesn't have enough insurance or no insurance at all. It can cover medical bills, lost wages, and other damages if the at-fault driver is underinsured or uninsured.
4. Car Insurance Fraud Prevention: Michigan also works to curb auto insurance fraud by requiring a detailed verification process for claims and by investigating suspicious claims.
