Verdict-Plaintiff
$5,462

One driver claimed another driver caused a collision at an intersection. The first driver was a passenger in a vehicle traveling northbound, while the second driver was westbound and intended to turn left. The second driver claimed they proceeded because the first driver's vehicle appeared to be turning right. The collision occurred, and the passenger sought damages for neck injuries. Experts disagreed on whether the injuries were caused by the accident or pre-existing degenerative changes.

Florida Car Accident Law: What You Need to Know

Key legal rules that affect how Florida car accident claims are valued and resolved.

Fault System

Modified Comparative Fault (51% bar, effective 2023)

Statute of Limitations

2 years from the date of the accident (effective 2023)

Minimum Liability

$25,000 per person / $50,000 per accident / $10,000 property damage

Florida transitioned from a no-fault to an at-fault system in 2024. The state now uses modified comparative fault—if you are more than 50% at fault, you cannot recover damages.

The statute of limitations was reduced from 4 years to 2 years in 2023 under tort reform legislation.

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage is no longer required for new policies, but existing policies may still include it during the transition period.
