Michigan minimum auto liability

Educational only. PolicyPlain does not sell insurance and does not provide insurance, legal, or financial advice. Coverage rules and prices vary by state and insurer. Read our full disclaimer.

Commonly cited minimum

20/40/10 BI/PD plus PIP choices (confirm current reform rules)

Notation is educational (BI per person / BI per accident / PD). Exact wording and required extras vary—confirm before you buy.

What this means

Michigan’s auto insurance system has been shaped by strong no-fault themes and PIP medical coverage choices that changed materially in recent reforms. Treat split-limit notation as a starting point only—PIP limits, coordination with health insurance, and property protection rules need a current DOI review.

Verify the source

Cross-check current requirements with the official regulator: Michigan Department of Insurance and Financial Services (DIFS). PolicyPlain does not publish bindable legal advice.

National orientation: NAIC consumer resources and Insurance Information Institute.

PIP medical coverage levels

Drivers typically choose among PIP medical benefit levels (or opt out in limited circumstances where the law allows). The selection changes both premium and what happens after a serious injury. Compare quotes using identical PIP limits—not just BI/PD—and read DIFS consumer FAQs for the options available at purchase time.

Property protection (PPI)

Michigan policies include property protection concepts that do not exist in every state. If you are new to Michigan insurance, read how PPI interacts with collision coverage on your vehicle so you are not surprised at claim time.

Minimum ≠ enough

State minimums set a legal floor. Serious injuries and modern vehicle values often exceed those floors. Use our auto coverage planner to think through limits educationally.
