What Texas law changes about a car accident claim
These are the rules that alter the outcome of this specific claim type. Texas's full set of rules is on the Texas page.
- Comparative fault
- modified-comparative-50. Recovery is barred once your own fault exceeds 50%.
- No-fault status: add-on-pip
- Not mandatory, but insurers must offer at least $2,500 in personal injury protection with every auto policy, and it is included unless the applicant rejects it in writing. PIP pays medical expenses and 80% of lost income regardless of fault. Tex. Ins. Code § 1952.152.
- Minimum auto liability
- $30,000 per person and $60,000 per accident, plus $25,000 property damage. A claim above the at-fault driver's limits depends on other coverage.
