Car insurance rules in New York

New York requires drivers to carry at least $25,000 of bodily injury liability per person, $50,000 per accident and $10,000 of property damage liability, often written 25/50/10. It also requires personal injury protection ($50,000) and uninsured motorist coverage ($25,000 per person, $50,000 per accident). New York 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.
