Understanding Florida Auto Insurance Coverage


Put simply, the various types of automobile insurance coverage in Florida can be confusing; which is why we have broken them down to help make it easier to understand.

  • - Liability Insurance
    Quick Facts

    Liability Insurance in Florida provides coverage for any injuries & property repairs for the other party (if you are found at fault) in an accident.

    The State of Florida requires each driver to carry at least minimum Liability limits of $10,000 per person, $20,000 per occurrence, and $10,000 in property damage. However, your premium can increase or decrease based upon the coverage limits you select.

    Liability insurance pays to repair or replace the other drivers' car and pays for properties fo others when you are at fault in an accident. Liability insurance is made up of Bodily Injury Liability and Property Damage Liability.


    Bodily Injury (BI) Liability provides important protection if you injure someone and/or if an injury in an accident results in death while operating your car. This form of auto insurance is important and something you want to keep at a consistent level, even as your car gets older and declines in value. In the event of a serious accident, you want enough insurance (higher limits) to protect assets that may become subject to a lawsuit.


    Property Damage (PD) Liability provides you with protection if your car damages someone's property, and it also pays for your legal defense costs if you are sued as a result of these damages.


    Together, Bodily Injury Liability and Property Damage Liability coverage makes up the minimum state required coverage for all Florida drivers.


    Liability coverage does not pay to repair or replace damages to your vehicle and/or any medical expenses you may incur in an accident if you are at fault. Consider purchasing additional types of coverage such as medical payments, collision, and comprehensive to pay for these expenses.

  • - Comprehensive & Collision Insurance
    Quick Facts

    Comprehensive & Collision insurance help cover the repairs or replacement of your car.

    Choosing a lower deductible will increase your premium and choosing a higher deductible will decrease your premium.

    If you lease or finance your car, Comprehensive & Collision is typically required by the lender.

    Together Comprehensive & Collision insurance provides full protection for your vehicle in the event of an accident, whether you are at fault or not.

    Comprehensive Insurance provides protection for your vehicle if it is damaged by something other than a collision with a vehicle or object, such as: Fire, Theft, Vandalism, and Collision with an animal, or other covered perils.

    Collision Insurance is a form of car insurance that pays for damage to your car when your car hits, or is hit by, another object. iPex Insurance offers a number of affordable insurance deductibles. You can opt for a higher deductible in order to lower your premium.

    Deductible refers to the amount of out-of-pocket expenses you are responsible for to cover the repairs to your vehicle in an accident. Common deductible amounts include $250, $500, or $1,000.

    Comprehensive & Collision provide full protection for your vehicle in the event that you cause an accident or another unpredictable event causes damage to your vehicle. Glass coverage is also included under the comprehensive portion. When you add comprehensive and collision to your policy, this is typically referred to as “full coverage".

  • - Personal Injury Protection Insurance (PIP)
    Quick Facts

    In the state of Florida, you are required to carry PIP coverage.

    PIP coverage begins at $10,000.

    PIP also covers you while you are walking as a pedestrian.

    Personal Injury Protection (PIP) Insurance typically pays for the medical, hospital, funeral, and/or lost wages incurred by you and any passengers injured in an accident in your vehicle regardless of who is at fault for the accident.

    It can cover the hospitalization and rehabilitation for you and your passengers, up to the policy limits that you choose. PIP only applies towards medical expenses, not any property damage. PIP also covers substitute services if the auto related injuries prevent you from performing your standard household tasks. 

  • - Uninsured & Underinsured Motorist Protection
    Quick Facts

    Florida has the highest uninsured drivers porcentages 26.7%. (Source: iii.org)

    UM provides coverage for any injuries and/or medical expenses caused during an accident if the other party is uninsured or if you're involved in a hit-and-run accident.

    Given porcentage of uninsured motorists driving around today, this is very important coverage to have, even in states with no-fault insurance.

  • - Medical Payments Coverage
    Quick Facts

    Not all health insurance policies pay for auto related accidents.

    You can carry $500 to $5000 per person in medical coverage.

    Medical payments also covers you while you are walking as a pedestrian or bicycling.

    Medical payments covers the medical, hospital, and funeral expenses for you and any passengers injured in an accident in your car, regardless of who is at fault.

    Medical payments are known as goodwill, no fault type of coverage that will protect you and your passengers in the vehicle. There is no deductible to pay before it kicks in, and it pays out on a per person basis. Regardless of how reliable you think your health insurance policy is, medical payments can help out on several different levels after an accident.

  • - Rental Reimbursement
    Quick Facts

    Rental Reimbursement is an optional coverage with an additional low premium.

    Not all auto insurance policies include insurance coverage while you're driving a rental car.

    You must have comprehensive and collision coverage in order to add rental reimbursement to your policy.

    Rental Reimbursement is coverage that provides you reimbursement for the expense of a rental car if your vehicle is disabled from an accident and in the repair shop. This coverage cannot be used for leisure purposes.

    Rental Reimbursement is an optional coverage that you can pay for, in the event that your car is in the shop due to a covered accident, and you still need to get to work or perform your daily tasks. There are different limits that you can choose from to be properly covered when renting another car. Rental car coverage can add up quickly after an accident, and this additional coverage might be worth the extra cost after an accident.

  • - Towing And Roadside Assistance Coverage
    Quick Facts

    Towing coverage will assist in towing your car to the nearest facility when your car can't be driven due to a covered loss.

    Roadside assistance provides support across the United States if you run out of gas, lock your keys in your car, get a flat tire or even need a battery boost.

    iPex offers towing and roadside assistance as an optional add-on to your auto insurance policy for an additional low monthly premium.

    If your car is in need of a tow after an accident, or you find yourself with car troubles on the side of the road, you can add this peace of mind coverage to your auto policy.
