- Notes
- $50,000/$100,000 is the lowest bodily-injury limit a driver may choose to purchase under Michigan's post-2020 no-fault reform; the new default (if a driver does not choose a lower limit) is $250,000 per person / $500,000 per accident. The $10,000 property-damage figure the source states applies specifically to property damage in another state -- in-state property damage in Michigan is handled through no-fault Property Protection Insurance (PPI), not a third-party liability limit.
Values marked our reading are our classification of what the source says — the source does not print them in those words. The quote below is the evidence for each one; judge it yourself.
