It says Florida insurers want to keep PIP with conditions. Who? I’m a Florida insurer and wish PIP a quick exit. I think the only one’s who may want it to live on are PIP/PD writers who fear their own demise should the sunset happen.
Let’s see-the relationship between Crist and one of the largest clinic owners in Florida could have an impact on whether it stays around-ya think? The clinics are mill, the fraud is rampid-just let it go..what do states without PIP do??
What do other states without no-fault do? We settle claims in a sane manner! I dealt with a claim in a no-fault state earlier this year and couldn’t believe all the hoops you have to jump through to settle it! What a joke!
No pip is ok, but pd liability is included with the sunset…. Do you want to get hit by uninsured drivers and not even get the 10,000. max for your car? Maybe you don’t think your collision coverage or UM, or health ins. will cost more…..and in Florida no less, where the driving is crazy…?
Wouldn’t you think they would make BI liability mandatory too? think of it, you are required to carry enough PD liability to repair a fender on someone’s car, but nothing for the person you injured?
It is a misstatement as a whole, because this particular agent would like to see PIP die a swift death. Bucket shops and their carriers are certainly in a panic about this, but with Citizen Charlie’s ties to the health care indistry, there’s no way to kill this beast. I feel for community hospitals in this debate, but don’t put the burden (and the fraud) on the backs of my clients.
I, for one, would prefer to eliminate most any government-required insurance coverage, with very, very few exceptions. If you don’t want to be covered, don’t be. If you can’t pay the bill when you have a wreck, that’s your problem. As a compromise, we could require restitution and reasonable limits of BI and PD for those causing damage without coverage. As for me, I wouldn’t make a single change to my coverage should PIP go away.
Don’t force people to buy coverage they either don’t want, don’t need, or maybe a bit of both. Sadly, Charlie will now resurrect what Jeb had rightly killed.

PIP doesn’t provide PD coverage, it is strictly BI. The original NoFault law provided Basic Property Protection but the Florida Supreme Court killed it. The same court did however uphold the BI portion of NoFault coverage.

There are plenty of insurers that wish PIP to stay. Go back to work at State Farm, Bill.
As stated earlier No Fault is complex and all states can do without it.
Try NY for an example.
Guess again, Miike.
Those most interested in PIP’s continuation are small carriers and MGA’s whose livelihood, via ceding commissions from reinsurers, depend on it.
