Quick personal injury questions and answers: Why does my car insurance pay my medical bills for a car accident? Why not the other car that was clearly at fault?

This is the most common question we get. Basically, the Florida No Fault Motor Vehicle Act in Florida requires everyone to carry PIP (no fault) coverage. This insurance pays your own medical bills (and wages) following an accident. Your insurance also pays for the medical bills of any resident relatives that don’t own a car, for any car accidents they are in, regardless of whether they are in your car. Your insurance also pays for the medical bills of any passengers of your car, if the passenger doesn’t own a car or live with a relative that owns a car. The idea is that the legislature didn’t want fault to determine which insurance pays the medical bills and they wanted everyone to have accident to medical care following an accident, regardless of who is at fault.

If you have been in a car accident and believe the other vehicle is at fault, please feel free to call the accident lawyer at Drucker Law Offices, which is attorney Gary J. Drucker.  At Drucker law offices, there is a free consultation with the injury attorney who will discuss your case with you.  Mr. Drucker gives his cellular phone to all the clients he believes that “personal injury deserves personal attention.”  And of course, there is no fee unless you recover money in your accident case.
