No-fault Auto insurance in Florida

| No Comments

The Florida Legislature has passed a bill to bring back the state's no-fault auto insurance system Jan. 1.

It is a good news for Florida residence. If any accidents happen, the people will be have been covered by Medical care and insurance company will pay the bill to hospital.

If this one is missing, the people may have not enough emergent fund to get proper treatment. Or, after treatment, he can not pay the bill of it.

I trust No-fault Auto Insurance should be included in the basic Auto Insurance coverage.


The bill to restore no-fault passed the House 105-4 early Friday and later in the day was passed unanimously by the Senate. Gov. Charlie Crist has indicated he will sign the bill into law

The system that expired Oct. 1 provided no-fault coverage for damage resulting from automobile accidents and required drivers to buy at least $10,000 in coverage, which covers medical expenses if they have no health insurance. State legislators failed to extend the law during the regular legislative session earlier this year, but the issue was added to the agenda of the special session that started this week.

Auto insurance companies favored the expiration of the system because it was riddled with fraud, but hospitals were worried that they wouldn't get paid for medical care provided to uninsured motorists.
