https://www.mallardperez.com Many people who buy car insurance in Florida mistakenly believe that bodily injury coverage covers them if they are hurt in an automobile accident. The name of this type of insurance is misleading. Bodily Injury Insurance does not cover you. It covers the person in the other vehicle involved in the accident if you are at fault. The insurance that would cover you for an injury that you received due to someone else’s negligence is the other person’s Bodily Injury Insurance Coverage. If they do not have such insurance, you can still make a claim against your own insurance if you have bought uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage.
