Sadly, insurance companies do not always sell coverage to drivers that cover the consequences when their negligence hurts someone. Some of the major insurers that advertise may try to “save the driver money” by providing this very limited insurance coverage. So, you could be a victim twice. The other driver may carelessly injure you. And, they may have no insurance, called bodily injury liability coverage, to pay for your medical bills and suffering. Protect yourself. Buy uninsured motorist coverage. Also, tell your representative that you want Florida law to require bodily injury liability coverage to protect all of us from being a victim twice.  Call us so we go over your rights.

What is the 14 day rule with a car crash? Everyone has a small health insurance on their automobile insurance policy that will pay up to $10,000.00 in bills even if you are not at fault in the crash. However, the insurance companies helped change the laws to limit the coverage to victims who seek medical care within 14 days of the crash. Many were taught to avoid going to the doctor for a few weeks when they are hurting. However, insurance companies are using your commonsense approach to deny benefits. So, don’t wait! See a doctor, hospital, or walk in clinic immediately if you hurt at all in a crash. If you wait, then you may lose your rights to have bills paid. If you have questions about this law, call Howell & Thornhill.
