Auto Insurance Minimum Requirements
Important Notes
Michigan features a highly complex auto insurance system. The default statutory limits are 250/500/10, but drivers can formally choose lower minimum limits of 50/100/10 by signing an acknowledgement form. Property Protection Insurance (PPI) up to $1 million for property damage within Michigan is required. PIP has several choice options, with a minimum of $250,000 required for standard drivers (Medicaid/Medicare opt-outs allow lower options).
Uninsured / Underinsured Motorist
Not legally mandated; available as an optional policy endorsement.
SR-22 Filings
Required for up to 3 years following severe license revocations or dynamic safety incidents.
Alternatives to Insurance
Regulatory compliance through approved self-insurance pools for eligible corporate entities.
