What is personal injury protection/no-fault insurance?
If you don’t live in a “no fault” state, you may not be offered Personal Injury Protection (but if you are offered PIP coverage, it likely won’t be required by law).
With Metromile, you’ll get the same state-approved coverage you’d get from any quality insurer, but you’ll likely pay less for it. (Metromile customers have saved an average of $741* per year on their car insurance.)
The less you drive, the less you pay. It’s a straightforward approach that could save you up to 47%* on your car insurance.

How does PIP insurance work?
Imagine you get in an accident that takes you to the ER—for a total medical bill of $7,000.
Did you cause the accident? Or live in a no-fault state? If so, you’ll file a claim on your PIP. (With Metromile, you can do this online.)
Your PIP coverage will step in to pay reasonable medical expenses caused by the accident up to the coverage limit. Whew!
How much is personal injury protection (PIP) coverage?
Your rate for Personal Injury Protection depends on several factors—such as your driving safety record and where you are in the country.
When you choose pay-per-mile coverage from Metromile, you can get a bundle of important policies (including PIP insurance coverage, if it’s available in your area) for as little as 6 cents per mile—plus a low monthly base premium. It’s a straightforward, fair approach that’s saved Metromile customers an average of $741* per year.

What’s the difference between PIP and Medical Payments coverage?
It’s easy to get MedPay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP) confused, since they apply in similar situations! Here are a few key differences between the two coverages:
- Unlike PIP, MedPay follows the policyholder even if they aren’t driving. So you could still be covered for medical bills from other kinds of accidents (for example, if you get hurt while cycling).
- MedPay is just for medical expenses. It won’t cover other expenses that are covered by PIP (think lost wages due to an accident).
Do I need Personal Injury Protection coverage?
Here’s how to think through whether or not you need car insurance that pays for your injuries and accident-related expenses.
- Do you live in a no-fault state, such as New Jersey? If so, you’re required by state statute to have Personal Injury Protection.
- Do you have health insurance that covers auto accidents? If you don’t—or if your health insurance has a high deductible—Personal Injury Protection (if it’s available where you are) can provide the peace of mind that comes from knowing you’ll have help paying for medical bills after an auto accident.
