Q: What are Pennsylvania’s minimum insurance requirements?
A: The Motor Vehicle Financial Responsibility Law only minimally requires vehicle owners to insure $15,000 for bodily injury to one person per accident and $30,000 for bodily injury for more than one person per accident and $5,000 for property damage per accident. The only other mandatory insurance is a requirement to conditionally carry $5,000 medical benefits for the registered owner. That’s it!
