Car insurance in Orlando, compared across carriers

We quote Progressive, Travelers, Mercury and other carriers side by side so you can see the real difference in price and coverage. New drivers, clean records, tickets, accidents or an FR-44 filing: our team handles all of it, in English or Spanish.

The short answer

Florida requires every registered car to carry at least $10,000 in personal injury protection (PIP) and $10,000 in property damage liability. Bodily injury liability isn’t required for most drivers, but without it you could be personally responsible if you injure someone in a crash. Most drivers we work with also carry bodily injury liability, uninsured motorist coverage, and collision and comprehensive on newer cars.

Florida’s minimum car insurance

Florida is a no-fault state. After a crash, your own PIP coverage pays 80% of your medical bills and 60% of lost income, up to $10,000, no matter who caused the accident. You need to get medical treatment within 14 days of the crash to use PIP benefits.

CoverageFlorida minimumWhat it pays for
Personal injury protection (PIP)$10,000Your own medical bills and lost wages
Property damage liability$10,000Damage you cause to someone else’s car or property
Bodily injury liabilityNot required for most driversInjuries you cause to other people

Some drivers do have to carry bodily injury liability. A DUI conviction brings an FR-44 filing with much higher limits, and certain other violations require an SR-22.

Coverage worth a closer look

  • Bodily injury liability. Protects your savings and future income if you injure someone. We usually suggest limits well above the minimum, especially if you own a home.
  • Uninsured and underinsured motorist. Florida has one of the highest rates of uninsured drivers in the country. This coverage pays for your injuries when the other driver can’t.
  • Collision. Repairs your car after a crash, whoever is at fault.
  • Comprehensive. Theft, vandalism, fallen trees, hail and flood damage from a storm.
  • Rental reimbursement and roadside assistance. Small additions that help a lot on a bad day.

What affects your rate in Orlando

Carriers price Orlando drivers on their driving record, the car they drive, how far they drive, their ZIP code, their coverage choices and, where carriers use it, their insurance score. Because each carrier weighs those things differently, the same driver can get very different prices. That’s the main reason comparing several companies is worth the few minutes it takes.

Special situations we handle every week

Bundle your home and auto

Many carriers discount both policies when your home and car are insured together. Sometimes splitting them between two carriers still comes out ahead. We’ll price it both ways and show you.

Auto insurance questions

Yes. Your own personal injury protection pays a share of your medical bills and lost wages after a crash, up to your PIP limit, regardless of who was at fault. Damage to cars and serious injuries can still lead to claims against the at-fault driver.

Most drivers aren’t legally required to carry it, but it’s the coverage that protects you if you hurt someone. Without it, an injured driver can come after your personal assets. Drivers with an FR-44 or SR-22 requirement must carry it.

An FR-44 is a certificate your insurance company files with the state after a DUI conviction. It proves you carry higher liability limits than a normal policy. Our FR-44 and SR-22 page explains the requirements.

Compare several carriers, bundle with your home or renters policy, ask about safe driver and multi-car discounts, and choose deductibles you could comfortably pay. A clean record helps most over time. We’ll review your options at every renewal.
