Car insurance rules in Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania requires drivers to carry at least $15,000 of bodily injury liability per person, $30,000 per accident and $5,000 of property damage liability, often written 15/30/5. A combined single limit of $35,000 is accepted instead. It also requires medical benefits coverage ($5,000). Pennsylvania is a choice state: drivers choose between no-fault and traditional at-fault cover.

These are legal minimums, not a recommendation: a serious crash can cost far more, and anything above your limits is yours to pay.
