Car insurance rules in Michigan

Michigan requires drivers to carry at least $50,000 of bodily injury liability per person, $100,000 per accident and $10,000 of property damage liability, often written 50/100/10. It also requires personal injury protection and property protection insurance ($1,000,000). Michigan is a no-fault state: your own personal injury protection (PIP) pays your medical bills after a crash, whoever caused it.

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