Car Insurance in Florida

What Florida requires

Drivers in Florida must carry at least 10/20/10 in liability coverage before getting on the road. That means the state sets minimum limits for bodily injury and property damage you might cause to others. Meeting the minimum keeps you legal, but it's worth remembering that a single serious accident can quickly exceed low limits — leaving you responsible for the rest.

What drivers in Florida typically pay

Costs in Florida reflect local factors like traffic density, repair costs, weather, and claims trends. Our illustrative estimates put full coverage around $233/month (about $2800 per year), with budget-minded options near $140/month and state-minimum coverage closer to $105/month. Your real number depends on your vehicle, driving history, and the carrier you choose.
