How Much Personal Injury Protection Coverage Must Drivers Carry in Hurricane, UT?
Utah law requires drivers to carry at least $3,000 in personal injury protection (PIP) for each person covered by the policy. This no-fault coverage pays medical expenses and certain other losses regardless of who caused the injury. Many policies offer higher limits, and the declarations page shows what a driver actually bought.
PIP is only the first layer of recovery. Under Utah's no-fault system, an injured person can generally pursue a claim for pain and suffering against an at-fault driver only after meeting a threshold. This could include death, dismemberment, permanent disability or impairment based on objective findings, permanent disfigurement, or medical expenses above $3,000.
The threshold depends on medical costs and objective findings, treatment records can shape whether a liability claim moves forward. Insurers may question whether treatment was related to the injury, and gaps in care can invite those arguments.
A car accident lawyer can review treatment records and billing to see whether the threshold may be met and how PIP payments fit alongside a claim against another driver's insurance.
